How to Clean OXYGEN Sensors [Easy Way]

[@omegaqed8592]

Do not do this if you are under warranty. If you are outside of warranty, do not do this unless you plan to throw the sensor away anyway. You are at high risk of either ruining the signal long enough to set a fault, or breaking the sensor outright. If the tip looks a little sooty, just wipe it off with a dry or slightly damp rag. Do not allow any fluids inside or spray it with anything unless you don't really care anymore, as it contains delicate chemically sensitive electrodes. This is not a spark plug -- as indicated by its cost. If you insist on running this little experiment, then using pure fluids that evaporate without residue. Acetone, 90+% rubbing alcohol, and Carb Spray. I suggest you avoid using anything like fuel injector cleaner or WD40, as they evaporate slowly and contain additives that could permanently poison the sensor. FYI, I work on NOx sensor design.

[@chrismc8548]

Gasoline sounds like it should be ok to clean a sensor since there is unburnt gas regularly flowing through the exhaust albeit in low concentration. What would you suggest to clean it?

I don't have a faulty sensor just a dirty one that I would like to clean up if possible. No better person to ask how it should be done than a guy who designs sensors for a living. Thanks for your opinion on the matter but I'll wait for Omega QED's response.

[@omegaqed8592]

@@chrismc8548 I was going to write a lengthy list of ways you could end up killing the sensor using gasoline, injector cleaner, water, etc., but if someone absolutely insists on soaking it in something, here are my two cents: Use a high purity solvent that evaporates rapidly, blow it out, then let it sit around for a day to ensure nothing remains inside. Something like 100% Acetone. I don't know what good it'll do you, but at least you're less likely to kill the sensor.

[@jamesdorsey1686]

One of the few videos getting to the real problem. I don't care about the outside protector cap of the sensor. I need the zirconium stone inside clean, and you are getting to that both by soaking and spraying into the venting holes. I think you made headway with capturing your trash in the bag. Now I will try this with testing before and after. With the trash I think you are on to it, good video, thanks.

[@omegaqed8592]

Do not do this. NOx sensors are not spark plugs. They have very delicate chemical sensing electrodes inside a fragile ceramic element. Soaking the sensor in any "cleaner" will cause the sensor to read very badly for the first few hours (if not kill it). You will be at high risk of setting a fault. If there is some soot on the outside of the probe, you can wipe it off with a dry rag. Under no circumstance should you allow a fluid inside the probe tip.

[@DrDrobotnik]

@@omegaqed8592 so you're saying WD 40?

[@omegaqed8592]

@@DrDrobotnik I cannot provide any "official" recommendations. However, IF: 1) it were my truck and it was outside of warranty 2) the sensor had relatively low hours and might have set a fault because of soot... Then I might consider trying to clean it just on the off-chance that it helps. In that case I would wipe it and use pure Acetone or 90+% rubbing Alcohol to soak, shake it out, and let it dry for about half an hour in front of a fan to help draw the vapors out. Do not use any fluid with additives, as those additives could permanently poison the sensor. This is why I suggested the pure volatile solvents. Be careful removing the sensor probe from the pipe, as they are often stuck and easy to damage upon removal. Be careful you don't get yourself in an engine de-rate situation if it doesn't work. Most of the time, this kind of cleaning repair on NOx sensors will not actually address the original problem even though the fault code may not come back--but you'll at least feel like you accomplished something. :)

It's not a Knock Sensor. It's not at Oxygen sensor either. He's saying NOx as in oxides of nitrogen. NOx sensors like the one he's cleaning can cost $800 each. NOx is NO1 and NO2. It's an acid rain particle with one nitrogen and either 1 or 2 oxygen atoms stuck to it. The "x' is a variable. NOx is formed at temperatures over 2400°F. A NOx sensor is part of a selective catalyst reduction system. In simple terms- diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) system that uses urea to neutralize N0x into ammonia. The system will have one in the front by the turbo and one at the end of the exhaust selective catalyst reduction unit.

[@omegaqed8592]

@@Funky4me21 That sucks. P1C54 means "Catalyst Missing". Essentially your outlet NOx sensor is seeing a lot of NOx (or DEF), so it thinks your have removed the catalyst. This indicates a severe issue with your DEF dosing or conversion across the catalyst. With such a young vehicle, the most likely culprit is your DEF doser. If they've replaced the sensors, and that did not fix it, then it's unlikely the sensors are the problem. Maybe ask them if they checked the DEF doser, and also check for urea deposits near the DEF injector. If you're in a cold climate, it's also possible your Urea is freezing up.

O2 sensor is for gas cars and nox sensors are for most diesel engines including simi trucks. They both works the same way. You can clean them and they will still work if there is a soot build up. The soot blocks up the small port holes,that's when the code mostly will appear. Get sm acetone or carb spray or rubbing alcohol and wipe it off good and let it dry. Then install it back. Take your negative battery cable off to reset the code. Make sure you always check your wiring harness as well before installing the sensor back because that's a lot of heat that travels through your exhaust and sometimes it will melt your harness and cause a sensor code. Hope this helps..

Thank you

Why can't we just blew it dry with an air gun instead to let it dry for 7 hours

[@TD-tb5xk]

Because he doesn't know what he's doing that's why.

[@johnly5702]

@@TD-tb5xk are you sure about that?

[@omegaqed8592]

If you have some soot on your NOx sensor, yes, you can blow it with an air gun. Just be sure it's not turned on/hot.

[@yiayang3403]

Funniest shit ever. I have heard of people trying this but never seen it successfully done. You are better just buying a new one. Thanks for the laugh.

[@johnly5702]

The funniest part was me spending $500 for a new oem sensor 😂

[@douggreen980]

Dealer wants $2,700 CAD to replace 2 NOx sensors in GLK. Laugh or cry at that one.

[@taylorbagnell22]

You said Carbon, Inside your injector? How would that happen? Really. Wow. I think BS. I would use Seafoam spray instead of injector cleaner for the sensor.

[@petroflorence7962]

Turns meth spirit kerosene thiners prepsol degreaser for BBQ the best carb cleaner plenty os stuff all Ur doing is opening for flow the inside is not carbon build-up

[@Unforgiven1969]

I did that, it is going to fuck up your car. You can buy a new sensor for $30 on line. If you touch the sensor, you fucked up right away.

MUCHAS GRACIAS

[@partsshooter]

This is satirical right? Not real but for comedy...i seen him make a video using water

[@laithaziz763]

Thank you so much

[@MatthieuAmherst]

Let me pick your brain... what if you replaced a nox sensor, problem is fixed then comes back?

[@rogerbjrkas9082]

@Egzon Mobil 650€ in Norway....

[@merciercarter3568]

Then replace the nox sensor. Sometimes sensor just wearout...cleaning won't fix everything.

[@TwoCents690]

Probably the other nox sensor is bad or the one behind the turbo may also be bad or need cleaning.

[@xXwoody2k11Xx]

Or maybe your vehicles running rich so the buildup keeps coming?

[@atomicdmt8763]

confused knock sensor....... w O2........it seems

[@omegaqed8592]

He has a NOx sensor there. Different from knock and O2.

[@chrisbrownlee7754]

Why are you saying knock sensor it's an oxygen sensor

[@ToMMeTjE81]

He is saying NOx sensor, because that what it is.

[@chrisbrownlee7754]

Oh my bad thought he was saying knock sensor

[@omegaqed8592]

All sensors are the same, right? 😆
