DTC P1115 Audi
O2 Control (Bank 1 Sensor 1) Short to Ground
O2 Control (Bank 1 Sensor 1) Short to Ground
Description
Engine started, battery voltage must be at least 11.5v, all electrical components must be off, the ground between the engine and the chassis must be well connected, the exhaust system must be properly sealed between the catalytic converter and the cylinder head, and the oxygen sensor heater for oxygen sensor before the catalytic converter must be properly functioning. The ECM detected a measurement on the O2 sensor circuit that was outside the parameters to function properly. Note: For resistance testing of sensor heating, oxygen sensor should be cooled to ambient temperature. High temperatures at oxygen sensor may lead to inaccurate measurements.
