Circuit / System Description
To ensure smooth idling, the ECM can increase and decrease the amount of fuel delivered to each cylinder. The ECM monitors the amount of fuel needed to balance each cylinder.
Conditions for Running the DTC
• The engine is running.
• The DTCs run continuously if the above conditions are met.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM detects if the amount of fuel required to balance the system is below or above a calibrated quantity.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTC P0263, P0266, P0269 and P0272 are Type C DTCs.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC P0263, P0266, P0269 and P0272 are Type C DTCs.

Circuit / System Verification
1. Ignition ON, observe the DTC information with the scan tool. Make sure no error code is set.
⇒ If any other DTCs are set, see DTC List - Vehicle for further diagnosis .
2. With the engine running, observe the DTC information with the scan tool. DTC P0263, P0266, P0269, and P0272 must not be activated.
3. Operate the vehicle under conditions that can be used to run the DTC and verify that the DTC does not return. You can also operate the vehicle between frozen data / error values.
Circuit / System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, check for:
• Low compression pressure
• Mechanical condition affecting the engine
• Twisted or bent injection lines
• Injection nozzle malfunction
⇒ If you have a problem, repair it as needed.
2. If all components test normal, replace the fuel injection pump.
