DTC P2195: Rear A/F Sensor (Bank 1, Sensor 1) Signal Stuck Lean; DTC P2197: Front A/F Sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1) Signal Stuck Lean

NOTE:
  • Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ).
  • Information marked with an asterisk (*) applies to the front bank (Bank 2).
  • If the vehicle was out of fuel and the engine stalled before this DTC was stored, refuel, and clear the DTC with the HDS.
  • If DTC P2101, P2118, P2135, P2138, P2176, or a combination of P2122 and P2127, P2122 and P2138, or P2127 and P2138 is stored at the same time as DTC P2195 (P2197)*, troubleshoot those DTCs first, then recheck for DTC P2195 (P2197)*.
  1. Check for dirt or debris on the MAF sensor/IAT sensor.

    Is it dirty? 

    YES  - Remove the debris. If needed, replace the MAF sensor/IAT sensor , then go to step  9.

    NO  - Go to step 2.

  2. Check the installation of the A/F sensor (Sensor 1).

    Is the A/F sensor loose or disconnected from the exhaust pipe? 

    YES  - Go to step  7.

    NO  - Go to step 3.

  3. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
  4. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
  5. Start the engine, and let it idle for 2 minutes.
  6. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

    Is DTC P2195 and/or P2197* indicated? 

    YES  - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the A/F sensor (Sensor 1) and the ECM/PCM, then go to step  14.

    NO  - Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the A/F sensor (Sensor 1) and the ECM/PCM. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting. ■

  7. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), or press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.
  8. Reinstall the A/F sensor (Sensor 1) .
  9. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
  10. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
  11. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE ).
  12. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

    Is DTC P2195 and/or P2197* indicated? 

    YES  - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the A/F sensor (Sensor 1) and the ECM/PCM, then go to step  1.

    NO  - Go to step 13.

  13. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P2195 and/or P2197* in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

    Does the screen indicate PASSED? 

    YES  - Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated in step  12, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting. ■

    NO  - If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the A/F sensor (Sensor 1) and the ECM/PCM, then go to step  1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.

  14. Update the ECM/PCM  if it does not have the latest software (see ECM/PCM Update ), or substitute a known-good PCM (see SUBSTITUTING THE ECM/PCM ).
  15. Start the engine, and let it idle for 2 minutes.
  16. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

    Is DTC P2195 and/or P2197* indicated? 

    YES  - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the A/F sensor (Sensor 1) and the ECM/PCM. If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM (see SUBSTITUTING THE ECM/PCM ), then go to step  15. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step  1.

    NO  - Go to step 17.

  17. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P2195 and/or P2197* in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

    Does the screen indicate PASSED? 

    YES  - If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, replace the original ECM/PCM  (see ECM/PCM Replacement ). If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated instep 16, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting. ■

    NO  - If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the A/F sensor (Sensor 1) and the ECM/PCM. If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM (see SUBSTITUTING THE ECM/PCM ), then go to step  15. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step  1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.
