DTC (PGM-FI)

1. Problem verification

   - 1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

   - 2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

   - 3. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 4. Start the engine.

   - 5. Hold the engine speed at 3, 000 rpm without load (in P or N) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.

   - 6. Test-drive the vehicle under these conditions:

   • Engine coolant temperature (ECT SENSOR 1) above 158 °F (70 °C)
   • Transmission in D
   • Engine speed below 4, 000 rpm
   • Vehicle speed between 15-75 mph (25-120 km/h) for 1 minute or more

   - 7. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P2098 and/or P2099 with the HDS.

   DTC Description	OBD STATUS
   P2098 Post Catalyst Fuel Trim System Too Lean (Bank 2)
   P2099 Post Catalyst Fuel Trim System Too Rich (Bank 2)

   Does the HDS indicate FAILED?

   YES 

   The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.

   NO 

   If the HDS indicates PASSED, intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the front A/F sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1), front secondary HO2S (Bank 2, Sensor 2), and the PCM.

   If the on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the on-board snapshot - Refer to: How to Troubleshoot the Fuel and Emissions Systems .

   If the HDS indicates EXECUTING, keep the test conditions until a result comes on. If the HDS indicates OUT OF CONDITION, go to step 1-6 and recheck.

2. Cylinder A/F variation check

   - 1. Start the engine.

   - 2. Hold the engine speed at 3, 000 rpm without load (in P or N) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.

   - 3. Check under these conditions:

   • A/C off
   • All electrical loads off

   - 4. Do the CYLINDER A/F TEST in the INSPECTION MENU three times with the HDS.

   CYLINDER A/F TEST

   Is the result OK?

   YES 

   Go to step 3.

   NO 

   Go to the troubleshooting for DTC P219B - Refer to: DTC P219A, P219B (19-21 9-Speed A/T) .

3. Exhaust system check

   - 1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Check for leakage, clogging, or blockage in the exhaust system.

   Is there leakage in the exhaust system between the front A/F sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1) and front secondary HO2S (Bank 2, Sensor 2), or any clogging or restrictions in the exhaust system?

   YES 

   Repair or replace the exhaust system .

   NO 

   Go to step 4.

4. A/F sensor (Sensor 1) check

   - 1. Substitute a known-good front A/F sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1).

   - 2. Reconnect all connectors.

   - 3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

   - 4. Reset the PCM with the HDS.

   Reset PCM

   - 5. Do the PCM idle learn procedure.

   - 6. Start the engine.

   - 7. Hold the engine speed at 3, 000 rpm without load (in P or N) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.

   - 8. Test-drive the vehicle under these conditions:

   • Engine coolant temperature (ECT SENSOR 1) above 158 °F (70 °C)
   • Transmission in D
   • Engine speed below 4, 000 rpm
   • Vehicle speed between 15-75 mph (25-120 km/h) for 1 minute or more

   - 9. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P2098 and/or P2099 with the HDS.

   DTC Description	OBD STATUS
   P2098 Post Catalyst Fuel Trim System Too Lean (Bank 2)
   P2099 Post Catalyst Fuel Trim System Too Rich (Bank 2)

   Does the HDS indicate PASSED?

   YES 

   Replace the original front A/F sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1) .

   NO 

   If the HDS indicates FAILED, replace front secondary HO2S (Bank 2, Sensor 2) .

   If the HDS indicates EXECUTING, keep the test conditions until a result comes on. If the HDS indicates OUT OF CONDITION, go to step 4-8 and recheck.
