* An HO2S will not cause this DTC to set without the occurrence of circuit related HO2S DTCs. Do not replace an HO2S to address this DTC.

* Observing the LT FT Bn 1 and Bn 2 parameters, while driving the vehicle can determine whether the rich condition is effecting only one

bank , or is common to both banks of the engine.

* A fuel system delivery condition causes this DTC to set. Thoroughly inspect all items that cause a rich condition. Refer to Fuel System

Diagnosis (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General

Diagnostics/Fuel System Diagnosis).

* Review the Freeze Frame/Failure Records with a scan tool.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Observe the DTC information with a scan tool. DTC P2178, P2180, P2188, or P2190 should not be set.

瀚慖f any other DTC is set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle (See: Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions/Diagnostic

Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle) to diagnosis the applicable DTC.

2. Ignition ON, observe the barometric pressure (BARO) sensor pressure parameter and compare the reading on the scan tool to the barometric

pressure table. Refer to Altitude Versus Barometric Pressure (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Specifications

).

瀚慖f the BARO sensor pressure is not within the range specified for your altitude, refer to DTC P2227, P2228, or P2229 (LLT) ( See: P

Code Charts/P2227).

3. Engine at normal operating temperature, observe the scan tool Long Term Fuel Trim parameters. The LT FT Cruise/Accel parameters should

be greater than -23 %. The LT FT Idle/Decel parameters should be greater than -7 %.

瀚慖f not within the specified range, inspect for the following conditions:

* A mass air flow (MAF) sensor signal that is skewed. If the Short Term FT parameters for both banks changes greater than 20 % when the

MAF sensor is disconnected, refer to DTC P0101 (w/LLT) (See: P Code Charts/P0101)DTC P0101 (LF1) (See: P Code Charts/P0101).

* A collapsed air intake duct

* A restricted air filter element-Refer to Air Cleaner Element Replacement (LLT) (See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Tune-up and

Engine Performance Checks/Air Cleaner Housing/Air Filter Element/Service and Repair)Air Cleaner Element Replacement (LSA) (See:

Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Tune-up and Engine Performance Checks/Air Cleaner Housing/Air Filter Element/Service and

Repair)Air Cleaner Element Replacement (LF1) (See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Tune-up and Engine Performance

Checks/Air Cleaner Housing/Air Filter Element/Service and Repair).

* The MAF sensor for foreign objects-Refer to Mass Airflow Sensor with Intake Air Temperature Sensor Replacement (LLT) (See:

Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Air Temperature Sensor ( Ambient / Intake )/Service and Repair)Mass Airflow

Sensor with Intake Air Temperature Sensor Replacement (LSA) (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Air

Temperature Sensor ( Ambient / Intake )/Service and Repair)Mass Airflow Sensor with Intake Air Temperature Sensor Replacement

(LF1) (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Air Temperature Sensor ( Ambient / Intake )/Service and Repair).

* Excessive fuel in the crankcase-Change the oil as necessary.

* Fuel contamination-Refer to Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (with Special Tool) (See: Powertrain Management/Computers

and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (with

Special Tool))Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (without Special Tool) (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control
