How to Fix B224E
Diagnostic Steps:
Check if fuel pump primes when key is turned to ON. Measure fuel pressure and verify bright white-blue spark at all plugs. Also verify mechanical timing alignment.
Repair Solution:
Power steering pressure switch monitors system operation. If pressure changes are not detected after calibrated speed transitions, this DTC sets. Verify PSP switch operation and check for circuit opens or shorts.
Technical Notes:
