[TD] Fuel Trim System Lean (Bank 1 [/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD] Generic Definition: [/TD]
[TD] This fault code indicates the Fuel System Monitor has detected an error in the vehicle’s Bank 1 fuel trim adjustment program, resulting in an air/fuel mixture that is too “lean.” The vehicle’s computer constantly monitors the air/fuel mixture and adjusts it according to current driving requirements. The vehicle’s computer stores predetermined “reference” values for air/fuel ratio for all possible driving conditions (base fuel trim). If the “actual values” from various sensors do not match the “reference” values for a driving condition, the computer command the proper components to make corrections (fuel trim adjustments). Fuel trim adjustments can be “short term” (STFT) or “long term” (LTFT). For STFT, the vehicle’s computer makes adjustments to the base fuel trim program by adding or subtracting fuel to achieve the optimum air/fuel ratio. For LTFT, the vehicle’s computer makes adjustments to the base fuel trim program based on the average of STFT fuel corrections. [/TD]

[TD] [h=3]Fuel System Monitor Overview[/h] The Fuel System Monitor is a PCM diagnostic that monitors the Adaptive Fuel Control system. The PCM uses adaptive fuel tables that are continually updated and stored in keep alive memory (KAM) in order to compensate for wear and aging in Fuel system components.Once the PCM determines the correct test conditions and the enable criteria are met (ECT, IAT and MAF values in range and with closed loop enabled), the PCM uses its adaptive strategy to "learn" changes needed to correct a Fuel system that is biased either rich or lean. The PCM accomplishes this task by monitoring the Short Term and Long Term fuel trim values during closed loop operation.
[h=3]Long and Short Term Fuel Trim[/h] Short Term fuel trim is a PCM parameter identification (PID) used to indicate Short Term fuel adjustments. This parameter is expressed as a percentage and its range of authority is from -10% to +10%. Once the engine enters closed loop, if the PCM receives a HO2S signal that indicates the A/F mixture is richer than desired, it moves the SHRTFT command into a more negative range to correct for the rich condition.If the PCM detects the SHRTFT is adjusting for a rich condition for too long a time, the PCM will �learn� this fact, and move LONGFT into a negative range to compensate so that SHRTFT can return to a value close to 0%. Once a change occurs to LONGFT or SHRTFT, the PCM adds a correction factor to the injector pulsewidth calculation to adjust for any variations. If the change is too large, the PCM will detect a fault.Note: If a fuel injector or fuel pressure regulator is replaced, do a PCM Reset and then drive the vehicle through the Fuel System Monitor drive pattern to reset the Fuel Control table in the PCM.
[h=3]Additional Help for Fuel Trim Trouble Codes[/h] The Fuel Trim readings on a Scan Tool do not always indicate a problem by themselves. However, Fuel Trim readings can be a real asset when attempting to determine the cause of one of these trouble codes, and to determine "where to start testing" to find the cause of an Air/Fuel mixture problem or Fuel System control related fault (i.e., related to a fuel control sensor or solenoid that may have failed).One of the first steps is to determine if the PCM is in "control" of the fuel delivery system. There are several test methods that can be used to make this determination. If the PCM is not in "control" of the Fuel Delivery system, the information in the Fuel Trim Repair Table below can be used to help find the cause of a Fuel Trim problem.

[TD] System Too Lean (Bank 2) [/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD] Generic Definition: [/TD]
[TD] This fault code indicates the Fuel System Monitor has detected an error in the vehicle’s Bank 2 fuel trim adjustment program, resulting in an air/fuel mixture that is too “lean.” The vehicle’s computer constantly monitors the air/fuel mixture and adjusts it according to current driving requirements. The vehicle’s computer stores predetermined “reference” values for air/fuel ratio for all possible driving conditions (base fuel trim). If the “actual values” from various sensors do not match the “reference” values for a driving condition, the computer command the proper components to make corrections (fuel trim adjustments). Fuel trim adjustments can be “short term” (STFT) or “long term” (LTFT). For STFT, the vehicle’s computer makes adjustments to the base fuel trim program by adding or subtracting fuel to achieve the optimum air/fuel ratio. For LTFT, the vehicle’s computer makes adjustments to the base fuel trim program based on the average of STFT fuel corrections. [/TD]

Hi All,
My check engine light came on, and I used a diagnostic tool to determine the codes triggering it are: P0171 and P0174 (see below).
If I clean the mass air flow sensor, will this help clear the codes?
Or do I really have to bring it in to the Cadillac dealership to have them Reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)?
Does the emissions warranty cover this work? My car was originally bought Feb 2005 and has 79,000 miles.

[TD] Definition: [/TD]
[TD] [h=3]Fuel System Monitor Overview[/h] The Fuel System Monitor is a PCM diagnostic that monitors the Adaptive Fuel Control system. The PCM uses adaptive fuel tables that are continually updated and stored in keep alive memory (KAM) in order to compensate for wear and aging in Fuel system components.Once the PCM determines the correct test conditions and the enable criteria are met (ECT, IAT and MAF values in range and with closed loop enabled), the PCM uses its adaptive strategy to "learn" changes needed to correct a Fuel system that is biased either rich or lean. The PCM accomplishes this task by monitoring the Short Term and Long Term fuel trim values during closed loop operation.
[h=3]Long and Short Term Fuel Trim[/h] Short Term fuel trim is a PCM parameter identification (PID) used to indicate Short Term fuel adjustments. This parameter is expressed as a percentage and its range of authority is from -10% to +10%. Once the engine enters closed loop, if the PCM receives a HO2S signal that indicates the A/F mixture is richer than desired, it moves the SHRTFT command into a more negative range to correct for the rich condition.If the PCM detects the SHRTFT is adjusting for a rich condition for too long a time, the PCM will �learn� this fact, and move LONGFT into a negative range to compensate so that SHRTFT can return to a value close to 0%. Once a change occurs to LONGFT or SHRTFT, the PCM adds a correction factor to the injector pulsewidth calculation to adjust for any variations. If the change is too large, the PCM will detect a fault.Note: If a fuel injector or fuel pressure regulator is replaced, do a PCM Reset and then drive the vehicle through the Fuel System Monitor drive pattern to reset the Fuel Control table in the PCM.
[h=3]Additional Help for Fuel Trim Trouble Codes[/h] The Fuel Trim readings on a Scan Tool do not always indicate a problem by themselves. However, Fuel Trim readings can be a real asset when attempting to determine the cause of one of these trouble codes, and to determine "where to start testing" to find the cause of an Air/Fuel mixture problem or Fuel System control related fault (i.e., related to a fuel control sensor or solenoid that may have failed).One of the first steps is to determine if the PCM is in "control" of the fuel delivery system. There are several test methods that can be used to make this determination. If the PCM is not in "control" of the Fuel Delivery system, the information in the Fuel Trim Repair Table below can be used to help find the cause of a Fuel Trim problem.

[TD] Fuel Trim System Lean (Bank 1 [/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD] Generic Definition: [/TD]
[TD] This fault code indicates the Fuel System Monitor has detected an error in the vehicle’s Bank 1 fuel trim adjustment program, resulting in an air/fuel mixture that is too “lean.” The vehicle’s computer constantly monitors the air/fuel mixture and adjusts it according to current driving requirements. The vehicle’s computer stores predetermined “reference” values for air/fuel ratio for all possible driving conditions (base fuel trim). If the “actual values” from various sensors do not match the “reference” values for a driving condition, the computer command the proper components to make corrections (fuel trim adjustments). Fuel trim adjustments can be “short term” (STFT) or “long term” (LTFT). For STFT, the vehicle’s computer makes adjustments to the base fuel trim program by adding or subtracting fuel to achieve the optimum air/fuel ratio. For LTFT, the vehicle’s computer makes adjustments to the base fuel trim program based on the average of STFT fuel corrections. [/TD]

[TD] [h=3]Fuel System Monitor Overview[/h] The Fuel System Monitor is a PCM diagnostic that monitors the Adaptive Fuel Control system. The PCM uses adaptive fuel tables that are continually updated and stored in keep alive memory (KAM) in order to compensate for wear and aging in Fuel system components.Once the PCM determines the correct test conditions and the enable criteria are met (ECT, IAT and MAF values in range and with closed loop enabled), the PCM uses its adaptive strategy to "learn" changes needed to correct a Fuel system that is biased either rich or lean. The PCM accomplishes this task by monitoring the Short Term and Long Term fuel trim values during closed loop operation.
[h=3]Long and Short Term Fuel Trim[/h] Short Term fuel trim is a PCM parameter identification (PID) used to indicate Short Term fuel adjustments. This parameter is expressed as a percentage and its range of authority is from -10% to +10%. Once the engine enters closed loop, if the PCM receives a HO2S signal that indicates the A/F mixture is richer than desired, it moves the SHRTFT command into a more negative range to correct for the rich condition.If the PCM detects the SHRTFT is adjusting for a rich condition for too long a time, the PCM will �learn� this fact, and move LONGFT into a negative range to compensate so that SHRTFT can return to a value close to 0%. Once a change occurs to LONGFT or SHRTFT, the PCM adds a correction factor to the injector pulsewidth calculation to adjust for any variations. If the change is too large, the PCM will detect a fault.Note: If a fuel injector or fuel pressure regulator is replaced, do a PCM Reset and then drive the vehicle through the Fuel System Monitor drive pattern to reset the Fuel Control table in the PCM.
[h=3]Additional Help for Fuel Trim Trouble Codes[/h] The Fuel Trim readings on a Scan Tool do not always indicate a problem by themselves. However, Fuel Trim readings can be a real asset when attempting to determine the cause of one of these trouble codes, and to determine "where to start testing" to find the cause of an Air/Fuel mixture problem or Fuel System control related fault (i.e., related to a fuel control sensor or solenoid that may have failed).One of the first steps is to determine if the PCM is in "control" of the fuel delivery system. There are several test methods that can be used to make this determination. If the PCM is not in "control" of the Fuel Delivery system, the information in the Fuel Trim Repair Table below can be used to help find the cause of a Fuel Trim problem.
