Fuel System 2/1 Rich Control Over Limit (At Load)
P0174 - FUEL SYSTEM 2/1 RICH CONTROL OVER LIMIT (AT LOAD)P0174 - Fuel System 2/1 Rich Control Over Limit (At Load):
WHEN MONITORED
With the engine running in closed loop mode, the ambient/battery
Temperature above -7° C (20° F), altitude below 2590m (8500 ft). and fuel level greater than 15%.
SET CONDITION
If the PCM multiplies short term compensation by long term adaptive
And a certain percentage is exceeded for two trips, the MIL illuminates and a trouble code is stored.
POSSIBLE CAUSES
- EVAP purge solenoid operation
- O2 signal circuit
- Restricted fuel supply line
- Fuel pump inlet strainer plugged
- O2 sensor ground circuit
- Manifold absolute pressure sensor operation
- Engine coolant temperature sensor operation
- O2 sensor
- Engine mechanical problem
- Fuel filter/pressure regulator
- Powertrain control module
DIAGNOSTIC TEST
1. CHECK FOR CURRENT DTC
Turn the ignition on.
With the DRB III(R), read PCM DTCs.
Q: Is this DTC present?
YES: For complete diagnosis of this DTC, refer to (P0171) FUEL SYSTEM 1/1 RICH CONTROL OVER LIMIT (AT LOAD). P0171
NO: Go To 2
2. INTERMITTENT WIRING AND CONNECTORS
The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time.
NOTE:
- Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary. Poor pin to terminal connections can set DTCs. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors specific to this DTC. Wiggle the wires while checking for shorts and open circuits.
- Check for any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.
Q: Were there any problems found?
YES: Repair as necessary.
Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - VER 2. Powertrain Verification Test - Ver 2
NO: The condition that caused this DTC to set is currently not present. Inspect the related wiring harness for a possible intermittent condition.
