DTC P2271 | Rear HO2S signal stuck rich
--- | ---
DETECTION CONDITION | • The PCM monitors the input voltage from the rear 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 rear HO2S signal remains rich. MONITORING CONDITION – 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: -15-15 % – Target A/F feedback system status: feedback control Diagnostic support note • This is an intermittent monitor (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.
POSSIBLE CAUSE | • Front HO2S malfunction • Rear HO2S malfunction • Front HO2S heater malfunction • Rear HO2S heater malfunction • Fuel pump control malfunction • Fuel pressure malfunction • Fuel injector malfunction • Leakage exhaust gas • Purge solenoid valve malfunction • Purge solenoid valve hoses improper connection • AIR system malfunction • Insufficient compression – Engine oil malfunction – Rised oil pressure – Metering oil pump malfunction – Metering oil pump control malfunction – Engine malfunction • PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP | INSPECTION | ACTION
--- | --- | ---
1 | VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED • Has FREEZE FRAME DATA been recorded? | Yes | Go to the next step.

3 | VERIFY RELATED PENDING CODE OR STORED DTC • Turn the ignition switch off, then to the ON position (Engine off). • Verify the related PENDING CODE or stored DTCs. • Are other DTCs present? | Yes | Go to the appropriate DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE.)
No | Go to the next step.
4 | IDENTIFY TRIGGER DTC FOR FREEZE FRAME DATA • Is DTC P2271 on FREEZE FRAME DATA? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Go to the FREEZE FRAME DATA DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE.)
5 | VERIFY CURRENT INPUT SIGNAL STATUS OF REAR HO2S • Connect the WDS or equivalent to the DLC-2. • Start the engine and warm it up completely. • Access the O2S12 PID. • Read the O2S12 PID under following accelerator pedal condition (in PARK or NEUTRAL). – More than 0.55 V when accelerator pedal is suddenly depressed (rich condition). – Less than 0.55 V just after release of accelerator pedal (lean condition) • Is the PID normal? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Visually inspect for the the gas leakage between TWC and rear HO2S. • If there is no leakage, replace the rear HO2S. (See REAR HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (HO2S) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.) Then go to Step 21.
6 | INSPECT PURGE SOLENOID VALVE • Inspect the purge solenoid valve. (See PURGE SOLENOID VALVE INSPECTION.) • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Replace the purge solenoid valve, then go to Step 21. (See INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM HOSE ROUTING DIAGRAM.)
No | Go to the next step.
7 | INSPECT AIR SYSTEM OPERATION • Perform the "AIR System Inspection". (See Secondary Air Injection (AIR) System Inspection.) • Does AIR system operate properly? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Repair or replace malfunctioning part according to the inspection results. Then go to Step 21
8 | INSPECT FUEL LINE PRESSURE • Perform the "FUEL LINE PRESSURE INSPECTION". (See FUEL LINE PRESSURE INSPECTION.) • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Go to Step 10.
9 | INSPECT FUEL SYSTEM FOR FUEL LEAKAGE • Visually inspect fuel leakage in the fuel system. • Is there fuel leakage? | Yes | Repair or replace the malfunctioning part, then go to Step 21.
No | Replace the fuel pump unit, then go to Step 21. (See FUEL PUMP UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
10 | INSPECT IGNITION COIL OPERATION AND HIGH-TENSION LEAD WITH TIMING LIGHT • Inspect the blinking condition on each high-tension lead using timing light at idle. • Do all the high-tension leads show blinking condition? | Yes | Go to Step 14.
No | Go to the next step.
11 | INSPECT HIGH-TENSION LEAD OF NO BLINKING HIGH-TENSION LEAD • Inspect the high-tension leads. (See HIGH-TENSION LEAD INSPECTION.) • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Replace the malfunctioning high-tension lead, then go to Step 24. (See HIGH-TENSION LEAD REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
No | Go to the next step.
12 | INSPECT IGNITION COIL POWER CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT OR SHORT TO GND • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine off). • Measure the voltage between ignition coil terminal C (wiring harness-side) and body GND. • Is the voltage B+? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit or short to GND, then go to Step 21.
13 | INSPECT IGNITION COIL • Inspect the ignition coil. (See IGNITION COIL INSPECTION.) • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Replace the ignition coil, then go to Step 21. (See IGNITION COIL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
No | Go to the next step.
14 | INSPECT ENGINE COMPRESSION • Inspect the engine compression. (See COMPRESSION INSPECTION.) • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Go to Step 19.
15 | INSPECT METERING OIL PUMP • Inspect the metering oil pump. (See METERING OIL PUMP INSPECTION.) • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results. Overhaul or replace the engine. Then go to Step 21.
No | Go to the next step.
16 | INSPECT ENGINE OIL CONDITION • Inspect the engine oil condition. • Is the engine oil condition normal? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Replace the engine oil. Inspect the ECT sensor and related harnesses. (See ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE (ECT) SENSOR INSPECTION.) Overhaul or replace the engine. Then go to Step 21.
