P2096
DTC P2096: Post Catalyst Fuel Trim System too LeanTECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
- The ECM effects air/fuel ratio feedback control in accordance with the signals from the heated oxygen sensor (front).
- If the heated oxygen sensor (front) has deteriorated, corrections will be made by the heated oxygen sensor (rear).
DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
- When an abnormality exists in the heated oxygen sensor (front), the amount of compensated fuel injection is abnormal. When this situation continues, it is judged to be faulty.
- If an abnormality exists in the heated oxygen sensor (rear), also it is judged to be faulty even though the heated oxygen sensor (front) is normal.
MONITOR EXECUTION
Continuous
MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS (Other monitor and Sensor)
Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC stored in memory for the item monitored below)
- Heated oxygen sensor (front) monitor
- Heated oxygen sensor (rear) monitor
- Heated oxygen sensor (front) heater monitor
- Heated oxygen sensor (rear) heater monitor
- Heated oxygen sensor (front) inactive monitor
- Heated oxygen sensor offset voltage monitor
- Misfire monitor
- Fuel system monitor
- Air/fuel ratio feedback monitor

DTC SET CONDITIONS
Logic Flow Chart
Logic Flow Chart:
Check Conditions
- Engine coolant temperature is more than 76°C (169°F).
- Under the closed loop air/fuel control.
- More than 90 seconds have passed since the engine starting sequence was completed.
- Mass airflow sensor output is more than 5 g/sec.
Judgement Criterion
- The amount of compensated rich air/fuel ratio is output by the heated oxygen sensor (rear). The status that the amount of compensated rich air/fuel ratio is greater than the specified amount continues for 5 seconds.
FAIL-SAFE AND BACKUP FUNCTION
- None
OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
Refer to Diagnostic Function - OBD-II Drive Cycle - Pattern 1. OBD- II Drive Cycle
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely causes for this code to be set are:)

DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
- MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)
- MB991824: V.C.I.
- MB991827: USB Cable
- MB991910: Main Harness A
STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
CAUTION: To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
1. Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
3. Read the DTC.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the diagnostic trouble code other than P2096 set?
YES : Refer to, Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart. Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions
NO : Go to Step 2.
STEP 2. Replace the heated oxygen sensor (front).
