P219A

DTC P219A or P219B (LF1)

Diagnostic Instructions

* Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle (See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview/Diagnostic System

Check - Vehicle) prior to using this diagnostic procedure.

* Review Strategy Based Diagnosis (See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview/Strategy Based Diagnosis) for an

overview of the diagnostic approach.

* Diagnostic Procedure Instructions (See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview/Diagnostic Procedure

Instructions) provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

DTC Descriptors

DTC P219A

- Air Fuel Imbalance Bank 1

DTC P219B

- Air Fuel Imbalance Bank 2

Circuit/System Description

The Air Fuel Imbalance diagnostic detects a rich or lean cylinder to cylinder air/fuel ratio imbalance in each bank. The diagnostic monitors the

pre-catalyst heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) signal's frequency and amplitude characteristics by calculating an accumulated voltage over a

predetermined sample period. An imbalance is indicated when multiple samples of the accumulated voltage are consistently higher than the desired

value.

P0449, P0452, P0453, P0455, P0496, P0606, P1133, P1153, P1516, P2101, P2135, P2176, P2269, P2440, P2444, P2A00, P2A03 are not set.

* The device control is not active.

* The intrusive diagnostics are not active.

* The engine overspeed protection is not active.

* Reduced power mode, ETC DTC, is not active.

* The power take-off (PTO) is not active.

* The traction control is not active.

* The fuel control is in air-fuel Closed Loop.

* The system voltage is more than 10 V, or less than 18 V.

* The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is warmer than -20掳C (-4掳F).

* The engine speed is greater than 350 RPM, but less than 6,000 RPM.

* The mass air flow is greater than 11 g/s, but less than 510 g/s.

* Percent ethanol is less than 87 %.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

Multiple samples of the pre-catalyst HO2S accumulated voltage are consistently greater than the desired value.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

DTCs P219A and P219B are Type B DTCs.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

DTCs P219A and P219B are Type B DTCs.

Diagnostic Aids

* The air fuel imbalance diagnostic is very sensitive to heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) design. A non-OE sensor or an incorrect part number

may set a false DTC.

* Monitoring the misfire current counters, or misfire graph, may help to isolate the cylinder that is causing the condition.
