DTC Advanced Diagnostics: P2DE0 (1.5L Engine) (2025)
DTC P2DE0 : Cold Start Air Fuel Ratio Control System Lean
General Description
The cold start emission reduction process controls the air fuel ratio to lean when the engine is cold to lower emissions as the catalyst is not warmed up. If the actual air fuel ratio is too lean or too rich compared to the commanded air fuel ratio, the powertrain control module (PCM) detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.

Malfunction Threshold
The ratio of the actual air fuel ratio by commanded air fuel ratio is 0.870 or less.
Possible Cause
The causes shown may not be a complete list of all potential problems, and it is possible that there may be other causes.
- Intake air duct breakage
- Intake air duct misinstalled
- Air cleaner breakage
- Air cleaner damage
- Air cleaner clogged
- Throttle body clogged
- Intake air system clogged
- Mass airflow (MAF) sensor failure
- Intake air temperature (IAT) sensor 1 failure
- Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor 1 failure
- Air fuel ratio too rich
- Air fuel ratio too lean
- Ignition system failure
Confirmation Procedure
Operating Condition
- Leave the vehicle until the engine coolant temperature [ECT Sensor 1] lowers to 95 deg.F (35 deg.C) or less.
- Start the engine, and let it idle for a while.
Diagnosis Details
Conditions for setting the DTC
When a malfunction is detected during the first drive cycle, a Pending DTC is stored in the PCM memory. If the malfunction returns in the next (second) drive cycle, the MIL comes on and a Confirmed DTC and the freeze data are stored.
Conditions for clearing the DTC
The MIL is cleared if the malfunction does not return in three consecutive trips in which the diagnostic runs. The MIL, the Pending DTC, the Confirmed DTC, and the freeze data can be cleared with the scan tool clear command.
