ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0175 Fuel Trim System Rich Bank 2

D06RW031

Circuit Description

To provide the best possible combination of driveability,
fuel economy, and emission control, a “closed loop”
air/fuel metering system is used.  While in “closed loop,”
the powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the Bank 1
HO2S 1 and Bank 2 HO2S 1 signals and adjusts fuel
delivery based upon the HO2S signal voltages.  A change
made to fuel delivery will be indicated by the long and
short term fuel trim values which can be monitored with a
Tech 2.  Ideal fuel trim values are around 0%; if the HO2S
signals are indicating a lean condition the PCM will add
fuel, resulting in fuel trim values above 0%.  If a rich
condition is detected, the fuel trim values will be below
0%, indicating that the PCM is reducing the amount of fuel
delivered.  If an excessively rich condition is detected on
Bank 2, the PCM will set DTC P0175.
The PCM’s maximum authority to control long term fuel
trim allows a range between –15%(automatic
transmission) or –12%(manual transmission) and +20%.
The PCM’s maximum authority to control short term fuel

trim allows a range between –11% and +20%.  The PCM
monitors fuel trim under various engine speed/load fuel
trim cells before determining the status of the fuel trim
diagnostic.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

D

No Tech 2 test is being run.

D

None of the following DTCs are set: idle system, EGR,
HO2S, (response, transition, open, low volts, no
activity), MAF, TPS, MAP, IAT, canister purge, EVAP,
injector circuit, or misfire.

D

Engine coolant temperature is between 25

°

C (77

°

F)

and 100

°

C (212

°

F).

D

Intake air temperature is between –40

°

C (–40

°

F) and

120

°

C (248

°

F).

D

Manifold absolute pressure is between 24 kPa and 99
kPa.

D

Throttle angle is steady below 95%.

D

Vehicle speed is below 136 km/h (85 mph).

D

Engine speed is between 400 and 6,000 RPM.

6E–167

ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS

D

Barometric pressure is greater than 72.5 kPa.

D

Mass air flow is between 2 g/second and 200 g/second.

D

Ignition voltage is above 9.5 volts.

D

Fuel system is in “closed loop.”

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

D

The PCM will illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) after the second consecutive trip in which the
failure is detected.

D

The PCM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Freeze Frame and in the
Failure Records data.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

D

DTC P0175 can be cleared by using the Tech 2 “Clear
Info” function or by disconnecting the PCM battery
feed.

Diagnostic Aids

Check for the following conditions:

D

Poor connection at PCM – Inspect harness connectors
for backed -out terminals, improper mating, broken
locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and
poor terminal-to-wire connection.

D

Damaged harness – Inspect the wiring harness for
damage.  If the harness appears to be OK, observe the
Bank 2 HO2S 1 display on the Tech 2 while moving
connectors and wiring harnesses related to the engine
harness.  A change in the display will indicate the
location of the fault.

Reviewing the Failure Records Vehicle mileage since the
diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often
the condition that caused the DTC to be set occurs.  This
may assist in diagnosing the condition.

Test Description

Number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the
Diagnostic Chart.
2. DTCs other than P0172 and P0175 may indicate a

condition present which may cause a lean condition.
If this is the case, repairing the condition which
caused the other DTC will most likely correct the
DTC P0172/P0175.

4. If the DTC P0175 test passes while the Failure

Records conditions are being duplicated, the rich
condition is intermittent.  Refer to 

Diagnostic Aids or

Symptoms for additional information on diagnosing
intermittent problems.
