That might be your problem.......if you're checking the O2 signal wire, it shouldn't have 5vdc, it's the O2 that generates the voltage fluctuation between 0 and 1 volt, 0.46vdc is the lean/rich threshold.
From the little information provided, you may have a shorted O2 signal wire to VREF somewhere in the wiring or a bad ECM. Hope this helps. GL
