P02CCCylinder 1 Fuel Injector A Offset Learning At Min Limit

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Matters for the ITP
  • Needs a drive cycle to confirm a fix
How the car detects it
The engine module learns a small-quantity correction for each injector: on overrun it gives one injector a tiny test injection (GM about 1.5 mm³), measures the resulting crankshaft acceleration and corrects the injector's activation time per rail pressure step. P02CC means the learned correction for cylinder 1 has reached its lower limit at at least one pressure step: the injector needs much less activation time than nominal – it delivers too much at small quantities or opens early. GM diesels set it at limits of roughly ±66–182 µs after two trips. It is documented on GM's 6.6 litre L5P and 2.8 litre diesels – on the 2.8 a worn drive belt caused it to return after injector replacement – and on Land Rover's 5.0 V8 petrol, where a software update is the first step. It differs from P01CC (over advanced), which some systems derive from the same learning.
What you may notice
  • Check engine light on
  • Often nothing noticeable; possibly rough idle or knocking
  • Possibly smoke or higher consumption
Likely causes
  • LikelyInjector of cylinder 1 leaking or over-delivering at small quantities
  • PossibleEngine software (update available for some models)
  • PossibleInjector correction code not or wrongly programmed after replacement
  • RareDisturbed crankshaft signal (worn drive belt, tone wheel, dual-mass flywheel)
Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
Repair
Hard · Usually a job for a workshop.Typical cost: €0 – €1,200
