Fuel Trim (Bank

The short term fuel trim to a bank represents a short term correction to the bank fuel
delivery by the ECM in response to the amount of time the bank fuel control oxygen
sensor voltage spends above or below the 450mV threshold.
If the oxygen sensor voltage has mainly remained less than 450mV, indicating a lean
air/fuel, short term fuel trim will increase into the positive range above 0% and the
ECM will pass fuel.
If the oxygen sensor voltage stays mainly above the threshold, short term fuel trim
will decrease below 0% into the negative range while the ECM reduces fuel delivery
to compensate for the indicated rich condition.
Under certain conditions such as extended idle and high ambient temperatures,
canister purge may cause short term fuel trim to read in the negative range during
normal operation.
Excessive short term fuel trim values may indicate an rich or lean condition.
21 Fuel Trim Cell 49 52 13 17 This displays dependent on engine speed and MAF sensor reading.
A plot of engine speed versus MAF amount is divided into the cells.
Fuel trim cell indicates which cell is currently active.
22 Fuel Trim
Learned (Bank 1) Yes/No Yes Yes
23 Fuel Trim
Learned (Bank 2) Yes/No Yes Yes
When conditions are appropriate for enabling long term fuel trim corrections, fuel trim
learn will display "Yes".
This indicates that the long term fuel trim is responding to the short term fuel trim.
If the fuel trim lean displays "No", then long term fuel trim will not respond to changes
in short term fuel trim.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The engine control module (ECM) monitors the EGR
valve pintle position input to ensure that the valve
responds properly to commands from the PCM, and to
detect a fault if pintle position is differen
t
fromcommanded position.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Check for the following conditions:
Excessive carbon deposit on EGR valve shaf
t
maycause EGR stuck open or unsmooth operation.
Those carbon deposit may occur by unusual
portoperation. Clean up carbon may make
smoothfunction of EGR valve.
Poor connection or damaged harness Inspec
t
thewiring harness for damage. If the harness
appears to be OK, observe the EGR actual position
display on the Tech 2 while moving connectors and
wiring harnesses related to EGR valve. A change in
the display will indicate the location of the fault.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The engine control module (ECM) controls engine idle
speed by adjusting the position of the idle air control
(IAC) motor pintle. The IAC is a bi-directional steppe
r
motor driven by two coils. The ECM applies current to
the IAC coils in steps (counts) to extend the IAC pintle
into a passage in the throttle body to decrease air flow.
The ECM reverses the current to retract the pintle,
increasing air flow. This method allows highly accurate
control of idle speed and quick response to changes in
engine load. If the ECM detects a condition where too
low of an idle speed is present and the ECM is unable
to adjust idle speed by increasing the IAC counts, DTC
P1508 or P1509 will set, indicating a problem with the
idle control system.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Check for the following conditions:
Poor connection at ECM or IAC motor –Inspec
t
harness connectors for backed-out terminals,
improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed o
r
damaged terminals, and poor terminal-to-wire
connection.
Damaged harness – Inspect the wiring for damage.
Restricted air intake system – Check for a possible
collapsed air intake duct, restricted air filter element,
or foreign objects blocking the air intake system.
