DTC Troubleshooting: P0171 (45), P0172 (45)

DTC P0171: Fuel System Too Lean DTC P0172: Fuel System Too Rich NOTE: If some of the DTCs listed below are stored at the same time as DTC P0171 and/or P0172, troubleshoot those DTCs first, then recheck for P0171 and/or P0172. P0107, P0108: Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor P0133, P1157, P2195, P2238, P2252, P2A00: Air fuel ratio (A/F) sensor (Sensor 1) P0134, P0135: Air fuel ratio (A/F) sensor (Sensor 1) heater P0137, P0138, P0139: Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) P0141: Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) heater P2646, P2647, P2648, P2649: VTEC system P0404, P2413: EGR valve Check the following parts for vacuum leaks: PCV valve PCV hose EVAP canister purge valve Throttle body Brake booster hose Are the parts OK?
YES | - | Go to Step 2 .
NO | - | Repair or replace parts with leaks, then go to Step 5 .
Disconnect the vacuum hose (A) from the EVAP canister purge valve (B) and connect a vacuum pump/gauge to the EVAP canister purge valve. Apply vacuum to the hose. Does it hold vacuum?
YES | - | Go to Step 4 .
NO | - | Replace the EVAP canister purge valve, then go to Step 5 .
Check the fuel pressure. Is the fuel pressure OK?
YES | - | Check the valve clearances and adjust if necessary. If the valve clearances are OK, replace the injectors, then go to Step 5 .
NO | - | Check these items: If the pressure is too high, replace the fuel pressure regulator, then go to Step 5 . If the pressure is too low, check the fuel pump and the fuel feed pipe, then go to Step 5 .
Turn the ignition switch ON (II). Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm (min −1 ) without load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let in idle. Test-drive under these conditions: Engine coolant temperature above 70 °C (158 °F) Transmission in 5th gear (A/T in D position) Drive at a steady speed between 24−120 km/h (15−75 mph) NOTE: DTC P0171 and/or P0172 may take up to 40 minutes of test driving to set. Using the HDS, monitor the long term fuel trim (LTFT) or air fuel feed back AVE (AF FB AVE) for 15 minutes of driving. If the fuel trim/AF AVE stays within 10 % of 1.0 (0.0 %), there is no problem at this time. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs in the DTCs MENU with the HDS. Are any Temporary DTCs or DTCs indicated?
YES | - | If DTC P0171 or P0172 is indicated, go to Step 1 . If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
NO | - | Troubleshooting is complete.■
