Inspection Procedure

HINT: 

• DTC P050B may be set when the engine shows the symptom as listed below. If necessary, check the trouble area as listed below.

  Symptom	Factor	Trouble Area
  Low idle speed at engine cold.	Excessive engine friction	Engine oil deterioration Drive belt tension Cooler compressor assembly Generator assembly
  Rough idle at engine cold.	Abnormal combustion	Fuel quality

• Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
