DTC P2270 [13B-MSP]

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

DTC P2270	HO2S signal stuck lean
DETECTION CONDITION	The PCM monitors the input voltage from the HO2S when the following conditions are met. If the input voltage is less than 0.4 V for 40 s , the PCM determines that the HO2S signal remains lean. MONITORING CONDITIONS ECT: more than 70°C {158°F} Engine speed: more than 1,500 RPM MAF amount: more than 10 g/s {1.32 lb/min} Short term fuel trim: -20-20% Long term fuel trim: -50-50% Target A/F feedback system status: feedback control Diagnostic support note This is an intermittent monitor (A/F sensor, HO2S.) The MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while the DTC for the same malfunction has been stored in the PCM. PENDING CODE is available if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle. FREEZE FRAME DATA is available. The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
