P1171

Read the instructions below then start the fault diagnostic procedure.

Symptom: The engine may stop after starting, run unevenly and misfire, or idle speed too fast.

P1171


Short Term Fuel Trim. Max Value, Air/Fuel too Lean.


Fault symptoms


The engine may stop after starting, run unevenly and misfire, or idle speed too fast.


On-Board Diagnostics

Type of diagnosis:


- Continuous. But interrupted when fault criteria fulfilled and will not restart until next driving cycle.


Enable criteria:


- Engine running and closed loop active. One multiplicative adaptation has been made. No change in status of brake light switch.


Fault criteria:


- Closed loop exceeds 25%.


Dependents:


- P0116, P0117, P0118, P0131, P0132, P0134, P0444, P0445 and P1105.


System reaction to a fault:


- None.




OK report:


- Provided the fault criteria are not fulfilled during the driving cycle the OK report occurs at ignition off before the engine stalls. Two types of OK reports can be given: Type 1: If a DTC is already stored for the diagnosis and similar operating conditions have occurred (coolant temperature above or below 71°C, engine speed ±375 rpm and load ±10%). Type 2: If there is no DTC stored for the diagnosis or similar operating conditions have not occurred


Fault handling: (See section Fault handling II, emission-related misfiring or fault in fuel system for more information.)


- Type II. CHECK ENGINE does not go on.


Diagnostic help

At some time, the engine fuel requirement has been 25% greater than calculated by the control module using information from the mass air flow sensor.

Fault diagnosis first determines whether the pressure sensors show about the same value with the ignition ON, as the mass air flow sensor is later compared with the intake air pressure. If the pressure sensors are OK but the mass air flow sensor is incorrect then check for air leaks after the throttle and thereafter, change the mass air flow sensor.

If the air quantity is OK, then the fuel supply is checked, i.e. pressure, response, pump flow and finally the injectors.

Functions in the diagnostic tool related to the fault:


Diagnostic status for the diagnosis.

O2S 1, unit V

Closed loop, unit %.

Multiplicative Adaptation, unit %

Additive adaptation, unit mg/c.

Purge Adaptation, unit %.

Air mass deviation from calculated, unit %.
