DTC P0171
DTC P0172
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The fuel trim is related to the feedback compensation value, not to the basic injection time. The fuel trim in-
cludes the short−term fuel trim and the long−term fuel trim.
The short−term fuel trim is the short−term fuel compensation used to maintain the air−fuel ratio at stoichio-
metric air−fuel ratio. The signal from the heated oxygen sensor indicates whether the air−fuel ratio is RICH
or LEAN compared to the stoichiometric air−fuel ratio. This variance triggers a reduction in the fuel volume
if the air−fuel ratio is RICH, and an increase in the fuel volume if it is LEAN.
The long−term fuel trim is the overall fuel compensation and carried out in long−term fueltrim to compensate
a continual deviation from the theoretical central value by the short−term fuel trim, due to individual engine's
specifications and engine deterioration with time.
If both short−term and long−term fuel trims are LEAN or RICH beyond a certain value, it is detected as a
malfunction and the MIL is illuminated.
DTC No.
When air−fuel ratio feedback is stable after warming up the
P0171 engine, fuel trim is considered to be in error on LEAN side
(2 trip detection logic)
When air−fuel ratio feedback is stable after warming up the
P0172 engine, fuel trim is considered to be in error on RICH side
(2 trip detection logic)
HINT:
When DTC P0171 is recorded, the actual air−fuel ratio is on the LEAN side. When DTC P0172 is re-
S
corded, the actual air−fuel ratio is on the RICH side.
If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the air−fuel ratio is LEAN and DTC P0171 may be recorded. The MIL
S
then comes on.
If the total of the short−term fuel trim value and long−term fuel trim value is within " 35 % (engine cool-
S
ant temperature is more than 75 _C (167_F)), the system is functioning normally.
