DTC P2187

DTC P2189

Fuel system too lean at idle (Right bank)

Fuel system too lean at idle (Left bank)

DETECTION CONDITION

• PCM monitors short term fuel trim (SHRTFT) long term fuel trim (LONGFT) during closed loop fuel control at idle. If the LONGFT and the sum total of these fuel trims exceed preprogrammed criteria. PCM determines that fuel system is too lean at idle.
Diagnostic support note
• This is a continuous monitor. (FUEL SYSTEM)
• The MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while the DTC for the same malfunction has been stored in the PCM.
• PENDING CODE is available if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle.
• FREEZE FRAME DATA is available
• DTC is stored in the PCM memory.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

• Misfire
• HO2S (RF, LF) deterioration
• HO2S heater (RF, LF) malfunction
• MAF sensor malfunction
• Pressure regulator (built-in fuel injection pump) malfunction
• Fuel pump malfunction
• Fuel filter clogged or restricted
• Fuel leakage on fuel line from fuel delivery pipe and fuel pump
• Leakage exhaust system
• Purge solenoid valve malfunction
• Purge solenoid hoses improper connection
• Air suction in intake-air system
• Insufficient engine compression
• PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA AND DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULTS HAVE BEEN RECORDED
• Have FREEZE FRAME DATA and DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULTS (Fuel system related) been recorded?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA and DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULTS on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2
VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
• Verify related Service Information and/or on-line repair information availability.
• Is any related repair information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information.
If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
3
VERIFY RELATED PENDING CODE OR STORED DTCS
• Turn the ignition switch to OFF, then ON (Engine off).
• Verify related pending code or stored DTCs using the WDS or equivalent.
• Is other DTC present?
Yes
If misfire DTC is present, go to Step 8.
If other DTC is present, go to appropriate DTC troubleshooting procedure.
No
If driveability concern is present, go to Step 8.
If not, go to the next step.
4
IDENTIFY TRIGGER DTC FOR FREEZE FRAME DATA
• Is DTC P2187 or P2189 on FREEZE FRAME DATA?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Go to troubleshooting procedures for DTC on FREEZE FRAME DATA.
5
VERIFY CURRENT INPUT SIGNAL STATUS (IGNITION SWITCH TO ON/IDLE)
• Access ECT, MAF, TP and VSS PIDs using the WDS or equivalent.
• Is there any signal that is far out of specification when ignition switch is ON and engine runs?
Yes
Inspect suspected sensor and excessive resistance in related wiring harnesses.
Repair or if necessary.
Then go to Step 16.
No
Go to the next step.
6
VERIFY CURRENT INPUT SIGNAL STATUS UNDER TROUBLE CONDITION
• Inspect same PIDs as Step 5 while simulating FREEZE FRAME DATA condition.
• Is there any signal which causes drastic changes?
Yes
Inspect suspected sensor and related wiring harnesses, repair or replace it.
Then go to Step 16.
No
Go to the next step.
7
VERIFY CURRENT INPUT SIGNAL STATUS OF FRONT HO2S
• Start the engine and warm it up completely.
• Access O2S11 (with P2187) or O2S21 (with P2189) PID using the WDS or equivalent.
• Check PID under following accelerator pedal condition (in PARK).
• Is PID reading normal?

- More than 0.45 V when accelerator pedal is suddenly depressed (rich condition).

- Less than 0.45 V just after release of accelerator pedal (lean condition)

Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Visually inspect for any gas leakage between exhaust manifold and front HO2S.
• If there is no leakage, replace front HO2S
Then go to Step 16.
8
VERIFY CURRENT INPUT SIGNAL STATUS OF MAF SENSOR
• Connect the WDS or equivalent to the DLC-2.
• Start the engine.
• Access the MAF PID.
• Verify that the MAF PID changes quickly according to engine speed.
• Is the PID normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace MAF/IAT sensor, then go to Step 16.
9
INSPECT FOR EXCESSIVE AIR SUCTION OF INTAKE AIR SYSTEM
• Visually inspect for loosen, cracks or damages hoses on intake-air system.
• Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace source of air suction, then go to Step 16.
No
Go to the next step.
10
INSPECT PURGE SOLENOID VALVE STUCK OPEN
• Turn the ignition switch off.
• Disconnect both hoses from purge solenoid valve.
• Blow air through purge solenoid valve.
• Does air blow through?
Yes
Replace purge solenoid valve.
Then go to Step 16.
No
Go to the next step.
11
INSPECT FUEL LINE PRESSURE
• Perform the "FUEL LINE PRESSURE INSPECTION".
• Is there any malfunction?
Yes
If fuel pressure is too high, replace fuel pump unit, then go to Step 16.
If fuel line pressure is low, go to the next step.
No
Go to Step 13.
12
INSPECT LEAKAGE FROM FUEL PUMP TO FUEL DELIVERY PIPE
• Visually inspect fuel line for any leakage.
• Is any fuel leakage found?
Yes
Replace suspected fuel line, then go to Step 16.
No
Inspect for foreign materials or stain inside fuel filter (low-pressure).
If for foreign materials or stain inside fuel filter (low-pressure), clean of fuel tank and filter.
Then go to Step 16.
13
INSPECT IGNITION SYSTEM
• Carry out spark test for right bank cylinders (with P2187) or left bank cylinders (with P2189).
(See Spark Test.)

Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace malfunctioning part according to spark test results, then go to Step 16.
14
INSPECT ENGINE COMPRESSION
• Inspect the engine compression for right bank cylinders (with P2187) or left bank cylinders (with P2189).
