Action Taken When the DTC Sets

DTCs P2178 and P2188 are Type B DTCs.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

DTCs P2178 and P2188 are Type B DTCs.

Diagnostic Aids

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

Diagnosis (LF1 China) (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and Air Induction/Fuel Pump/Testing and Inspection/Fuel System

Diagnosis (China))Fuel System Diagnosis (LF1 Except China) (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and Air Induction/Fuel

Pump/Testing and Inspection/Fuel System Diagnosis (Except China))Fuel System Diagnosis (LAU China) (See: Powertrain

Management/Fuel Delivery and Air Induction/Fuel Pump/Testing and Inspection/Fuel System Diagnosis (China))Fuel System Diagnosis

(LAU Except China) (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and Air Induction/Fuel Pump/Testing and Inspection/Fuel System

Diagnosis (Except China)).

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

Circuit/System Verification

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

瀚慖f there are other DTCs set besides DTC P2178 or P2188, 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 BARO 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/Altitude Versus

Barometric Pressure).

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

Charts/P2227).

3. Engine at normal operating temperature, observe the Average Total Fuel Trim parameter with a scan tool. The Average Total Fuel Trim

should be between -22 to +23 percent.

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

* A mass air flow sensor signal that is skewed. If the Short Term Fuel Trim parameter changes greater than 20 percent when the MAF

sensor is disconnected, refer to DTC P0101 (LAU) (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 (LF1) (See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Tune-up and
