DTC P0171 System too Lean (Fuel Trim)
(Only for California Spec.)
DTC P0172 System too Rich (Fuel Trim)
(Only for California Spec.)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Fuel trim refers to the feedback compensation value compared against the basic injection time. Fuel trim
includes short±term fuel trim and long±term fuel trim.
Short±term fuel trim is the short±term fuel compensation used to maintain the air±fuel ratio at its ideal
theoretical value.
The signal from the A/F sensor is approximately proportional to the existing air±fuel ratio, and ECM compar-
ing it with the ideal theoretical value, the ECM reduces fuel volume immediately if the air±fuel ratio is rich
and increases fuel volume if it is lean.
Long±term fuel trim compensates the deviation from the central value of the short±term fuel trim stored up
by each engine tolerance, and the deviation from the central value due to the passage of time and changes
of using environment.
If both the short±term fuel trim and long±term fuel trim exceed a certain value, it is detected as a malfunction
and the MIL lights up.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0171
When air±fuel ratio feedback is stable after engine warming up,
fuel trim is considerably in error on rich side
(2 trip detection logic)

Gas leakage on exhaust system

Air intake (loose hoses)

Fuel line pressure

Injector blockage

Manifold absolute pressure sensor

Engine coolant temp. sensor

P0172
When air±fuel ratio feedback is stable after engine warming up,
fuel trim is considerably in error on lean side
(2 trip detection logic)

Gas leakage on exhaust system

Fuel line pressure

Injector leak, blockage

Manifold absolute pressure sensor

Engine coolant temp. sensor

A/F sensor
HINT:

When the DTC P0171 is recorded, the actual air±fuel ratio is on the lean side. When DTC P0172 is
recorded, the actual air±fuel ratio is on the rich side.

If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the air±fuel ratio is lean and DTC P0171 is recorded. The MIL then comes
on.

If the total of the short±term fuel trim value and long±term fuel trim value is within + 38 %, the system
is functioning normally.

The A/F sensor output voltage and the short±term fuel trim value can be read using the OBD II scan
tool or TOYOTA hand±held tester.

The ECM controls the voltage of AF
and AF terminals of ECM to the fixed voltage. Therefore, it
is impossible to confirm the A/F sensor output voltage without OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand±held
tester.

7 Check output voltage of A/F sensor.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Warm up the A/F sensor with the engine at 2,500 rpm for approx. 90 sec.
CHECK:
Read voltage value of A/F sensor on the screen of OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand±held tester when you
perform all the following conditions.
HINT:
The voltage of AF
terminal of ECM is 3.3 V fixed and AF terminal is 3.0 V fixed. Therefore, it is impossible
to check the A/F sensor output voltage at the terminals (AF
/AF) of ECM.
OK:

Not remains at 3.8 V (* 0.76 V) or more

Not remains at 2.8 V (* 0.56 V) or less
*: When you use OBD II scan tool (excluding TOYOTA hand±held tester)
HINT:

During fuel enrichment, there is a case that the output voltage of A/F sensor is below 2.8 V (* 0.56 V),
it is normal.

During fuel cut, there is a case that the output voltage of A/F sensor is above 3.8 V (* 0.76 V), it is nor-
mally.

If output voltage of A/F sensor remains at 3.30 V (* 0.660 V) even after performing all the above condi-
tions, A/F sensor circuit may be open.

If output voltage of A/F sensor remains at 3.8 V (* 0.76 V) or more, or 2.8 V (* 0.56 V) or less even after
performing all the above conditions, A/F sensor circuit may be short.
