DTC Descriptor

DTC P2097

Post Catalyst Fuel Trim System High Limit

Circuit Description

Fuel trim bias is used by the engine control module (ECM) to keep the post catalyst HO2S voltage within a range of 580-665 mV. This allows optimal catalyst efficiency under light load conditions, such as at idle or a steady cruise. The ECM constantly monitors how lean or rich the fuel trim bias is commanded, to determine if the fuel trim bias is greater than a calibrated amount.

Conditions for Running the DTC


Before the ECM can report DTC P2097 failed, DTCs P0030, P0031, P0032, P0130, P0131, P0132, P0133, P0135, P0137, P0138, P2232, P2235, P2270, P2271, P2272, and P2273 must run and pass.

DTC P0100, P0101, P0102, P0103, P0111, P0112, P0113, P0116, P0117, P0118, P0119, P0420, P0443, P0458, or P0459 is not set.

The engine speed is 1,080-3,480 RPM.

The engine load is 17-20 % and steady.

The Closed Loop fuel control is active for greater than 1 s.

The front and rear HO2S are in Closed Loop.

The calculated exhaust gas temperature is greater than 250°C (482°F).

DTC P2097 runs continuously when the conditions above have been met for greater than 200 s.


Conditions for Setting the DTC

The rich correction limit for a condition causing a lean air/fuel mixture has been exceeded for a predetermined amount of time. The condition is present for greater than 4 s or for a cumulative of 30 s.

Action Taken when the DTC Sets

DTC P2097 is a Type B DTC.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

DTC P2097 is a Type B DTC.

Diagnostic Aids


An HO2S will not activate this diagnostic trouble code but circuit related HO2S diagnostic trouble codes occur. Do not replace an HO2S to remedy this diagnostic trouble code.

An exhaust system leak that may not be audible can set this DTC.

Circuit/System Verification


1. Ignition ON, observe the scan tool DTC information. Verify there is no other HO2S or fuel trim DTC set.

2. If any other HO2S or fuel trim DTC is set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle .

3. Verify that none of the following conditions exist:

Exhaust system leaks-Refer to Exhaust Leakage

Engine vacuum leaks

Low fuel system pressure-Refer to Fuel System Diagnosis .

Fuel that is contaminated-Refer to Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis .

Lean or rich fuel injectors-Refer to Fuel Injector Solenoid Coil Test .

If you find any of the above conditions, repair as necessary.

4. Refer to Road Test Warning .

Note

The rear heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) must be in Closed Loop for this diagnostic to run. A road load condition is necessary to obtain Closed Loop.


Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.


Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
