P1128 - CLOSED LOOP FUELING NOT ACHIEVED - BANK 1
For complete wiring diagrams refer to Diagrams/Electrical.
- When Monitored:
Engine running in closed loop mode.
- Set Condition:
Enable conditions are met and the 02 sensor has not been in closed loop control at least once on each of the two consecutive trips, the MIL illuminates and the DTC is set. Two Trip Fault. Three good trips to turn off the MIL
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding.
Diagnostic Test
1. ACTIVE DTC
Diagnose all other trouble codes before continuing.
Start the engine.
Allow the engine to reach normal operating temperature.
With a scan tool, select View DTCs.
NOTE: It may be necessary to drive the vehicle to meet the conditions to set this DTC, try to repeat the conditions in which the fault originally set by reviewing the Freeze Frame data.
Is the DTC Active or Pending at this time?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Refer to the INTERMITTENT CONDITION Diagnostic Procedure. Intermittent Condition
2. CHECKING FUEL PRESSURE
WARNING: The fuel system is under a constant pressure (even with the engine off). Before testing or servicing any fuel system hose, fitting or line, the fuel system pressure must be released. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury or death.
Install a fuel pressure gauge to the fuel rail.
Ignition on, engine not running.
With a scan tool, actuate the ASD Fuel System test and observe the fuel pressure gauge.
NOTE: Fuel pressure specification is 407 kPa ± 34 kPa (59 psi ± 5 psi).
Turn the ignition off.
Choose a conclusion that best matches your fuel pressure reading.

3. O2 SENSOR OPERATION
Start the engine.
Allow the engine to reach normal operating temperature.
NOTE: If one of the O2 Sensor's Signal or Return circuit is shorted to ground the scan tool will display all O2 Sensor voltage readings low. The O2 Sensor that is shorted to ground will display a voltage reading near or at 0 volts.
NOTE: If one of the O2 Sensor Signal or Return circuits are shorted to voltage, the scan tool will display all O2 Sensor voltage readings high.
NOTE: After the repairs have been made, verify proper O2 Sensor operation. If all the O2 Sensor voltage readings have not returned to normal, follow the diagnostic procedure for the remaining O2 Sensors.
With a scan tool, monitor all of the O2 Sensor voltage readings.
Is the voltage switching between 2.5 and 3.4 volts for all the O2 Sensors?
Yes
- Go To 4
No
- Go To 8
4. 1/1 O2 SENSOR HEATER OPERATION
Turn the ignition off.
NOTE: Wait a minimum of 10 minutes to allow the O2 Sensor to cool down before continuing the test. Allow the O2 Sensor voltage to stabilize at 5.0 volts.
Ignition on, engine not running.
With a scan tool, actuate the 1/1 O2 Heater Test.
With the scan tool, monitor 1/1 O2 Sensor voltage for at least 2 minutes.
Does the voltage stay above 4.5 volts?
Yes
- Replace the 1/1 O2 Sensor.
- Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Powertrain Verification Test
No
- Go To 5
5. MAP SENSOR OPERATION
Turn the ignition off.
Connect a Vacuum Gauge to a Manifold Vacuum source.
Start the engine.
Allow the engine to idle.
NOTE: If engine will not idle, maintain a constant RPM above idle.
With the scan tool, read the MAP Sensor vacuum value.
Is the scan tool reading within 1 inch of Hg of the Vacuum Gauge reading?
Yes
- Go To 6
No
- Replace the MAP Sensor.
- Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Powertrain Verification Test
6. ECT SENSOR OPERATION
NOTE: For this test to be valid, the thermostat must be operating correctly.
NOTE: This test works best if performed on a cold engine (cold soak)
Ignition on, engine not running.
With a scan tool, read the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor value. If the engine was allowed to sit overnight (cold soak), the temperature value should be a sensible value that is somewhere close to the ambient temperature.
NOTE: If engine coolant temperature is above 82° C (180° F) , allow the engine to cool until 65° C (150° F) is reached.
Start the Engine.
During engine warm-up, monitor the ECT Sensor value. The temperature value change should be a smooth transition from start up to normal operating temperature 82° C (180° F). The value should reach at least 82° C (180° F).
Did the ECT value increase smoothly and did it reach at least 82° C (180° F)?
Yes
- Go To 7
No
- Replace the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor.
- Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Powertrain Verification Test
