P2150

DTC P2150

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The common 2 injector drive circuit is a high-voltage supply (near 120 volts) which drives injectors for cylinder 2 and 3 in conjunction with the engine control module (ECM) grounding the injector control circuit. The ECM supplies battery voltage on the injector drive circuit to allow for fault detection. If the common 2 injector drive circuit supply to the cylinder 2 and 3 is shorted to a ground circuit, this DTC will set. Or, if the injector solenoid control circuit 2 or 3 is shorted to ground, this DTC will also set.

Condition for Running the DTC
- The battery voltage is between 10-16 volts.
- The ignition switch is ON.
- The engine is running.

Condition for Setting the DTC
- The ECM detects that the common 2 fuel injector drive circuit or cylinder 2 or 3 fuel injector solenoid control circuit is shorted to ground during 8 engine rotations.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
- The ECM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
- The ECM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The ECM stores this information in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.
- The ECM disables cylinder 2 and 3 fuel injector operation.
- The ECM limits fuel rail pressure within 11600 psi (80 MPa).
- The ECM limits accelerator control range to idle.
- The ECM closes the EGR valve and holds to close position.
- The ECM inhibits the cruise control.
- The ECM inhibits the PTO control.

Condition for Clearing the MIL/DTC
- The ECM turns OFF the MIL after 3 consecutive driving cycles when the diagnostic runs and does not fail. (12,000 lbs GVW)
- The ECM turns OFF the MIL when the diagnostic runs and does not fail. (Except 12,000 lbs GVW)
- A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
- A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic after the ECM turns OFF the MIL.
- Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.

Diagnostic Aids
If an intermittent condition is suspected, the following may cause an intermittent:
- Misrouted harness
- Rubbed through wire insulation

Check for the following conditions:
- Damaged harness: Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness appears to be OK, observe the "DTC P2150" display on the scan tool with engine running while moving connectors and wiring harness. A change in the display will indicate the location of the fault.
