DTC P2177

Fuel Trim System Lean at Cruise or Acceleration

DTC P2187

Fuel Trim System Lean at Idle

Circuit/System Description

The engine control module (ECM) controls the air/fuel metering system in order to provide the best possible combination of driveability, fuel economy, and emission control. Fuel delivery is controlled differently during Open Loop and Closed Loop. During Open Loop, the ECM determines fuel delivery based on sensor signals without heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) input. During Closed Loop, the ECM adds HO2S inputs to calculate the Short and Long Term Fuel Trim adjustments. If the HO2S indicates a lean condition, the Fuel Trim values will be above 0%. If the HO2S indicates a rich condition, the Fuel Trim values will be below 0%. The Short Term Fuel Trim values change rapidly in response to the HO2S voltage signals. The Long Term Fuel Trim makes coarse adjustments in order to maintain an air/fuel ratio of 14.7:1.

Circuit/System Verification

Note

Disregard any transmission symptoms, antilock brake system (ABS) indicators, and traction control system indicators until any fuel trim faults are repaired. A fuel trim fault may cause default actions such as harsh shifts and illumination of the ABS/traction control system indicators.



1. If any other DTCs are set, perform those diagnostics first.

2. Operate the vehicle within the parameters described in Conditions for Running and Conditions for Setting. The DTC should not set this ignition.

3. If the DTC sets this ignition, proceed with Circuit/System Testing.


Circuit/System Testing

Note

You must perform the Circuit/System Verification before proceeding with Circuit/System Testing.


Allow the engine to reach operating temperature. With the engine idling, observe the Long Term Fuel Trim parameter with a scan tool. The reading should be between 0-23%.


• With the ignition ON and the engine OFF, observe the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor parameter. The MAP Sensor pressure should be within the range specified for your altitude. Refer to Altitude Versus Barometric Pressure .

• If the B74 MAP sensor does not indicate the correct barometric pressure, refer to DTC P0106 or DTC P0107 or P0108 .

• With the engine idling, observe the mass air flow (MAF) sensor parameter. The MAF Sensor parameter should be between 2-6 g/s at idle.

• If the MAF Sensor parameter is not between 2-6 g/s at idle, refer to DTC P0100-P0103 or DTC P0101 .

• Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks, and improper connections

• Insufficient fuel in the tank

• Low fuel pressure-Refer to Fuel System Diagnosis .

• Ethanol concentration greater than 15%-Refer to Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis .

• Fuel contamination-Refer to Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis .

• Malfunctioning fuel injectors

• Missing, loose, or leaking exhaust components from the HO2S forward-Refer to Symptoms - Engine Exhaust .

• Vacuum leaks at the intake manifold and the throttle body

• The air induction system and the air intake ducts for leaks or for a missing air filter element

• A cracked EVAP canister

• Evaporative pipes obstructed or leaking

• The crankcase ventilation system for leaks-Refer to Crankcase Ventilation System Inspection/Diagnosis (With Turbocharger) .

• The HO2S for improper installation and for electrical wires or connectors that may have suffered corrosion, water intrusion, or contacted the exhaust system

• Incorrect terminal tension at electrical connectors

• Loose, corroded, or mislocated electrical ground connections

Clear the DTCs.

5. Turn OFF the ignition for 60 s.

6. Start the engine.

7. Duplicate the Conditions for Running the DTC and use the Freeze Frame/Failure Records, if applicable, in order to verify the DTC does not reset.
