What causes a P0171 and P0174 code?

Code P0171 indicates Bank 1 of the engine has a lean fuel mixture. P0171 is triggered by the engine bank 1 “upstream” oxygen sensor and P0174 is triggered by the engine bank 2 “upstream” oxygen sensor. The oxygen sensor alerts your system when the condition is too lean meaning there’s too much oxygen in the exhaust.

What causes lean air/fuel ratio?

Your engine runs lean if your air-to-fuel mixture is too light – this means that the fuel in your ignition chamber is being igniting with too much air or too little fuel. Your engine running lean is always a symptom of another problem – it could be a dirty MAF sensor, a damaged oxygen sensor, or damaged fuel injectors.

When the adjustments become too large to maintain the proper mixture, the fault codes P0171 and P0174 are logged. They are logged together, since in V8 and V6 (and more rarely in some 4-cylinder and straight 6-cylinder cars) the cylinders are split into two separate groups, or banks.

What is the diagnostic code for a misfire?

Misfires that turn on the check engine light and log a cylinder-specific fault code are the easiest to diagnose. A flashing check engine light and a P0301 to P0312 diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is a surefire indication that one or more cylinders are misfiring. Occasional misfires may pass unnoticed, but a steady misfire is hard to miss.

What does the p0174 code on a MAF mean?

The most common reason for the P0174 code is a faulty MAF sensor or a vacuum leak somewhere. It can also be low fuel pressure-related problems like a weak fuel pump or clogged fuel filter.
