B0074 Fiat 12 Hp Diagnostic Trouble Code
B0074 Fiat 12 Hp code definition:
B0074 is a kind of OBD-II Diagnostic B-Body Diagnostic Trouble Code for Fiat 12 Hp.
B0074 Fiat 12 Hp is defined as Cylinder 3 Injector Circuit Malfunction. This code means the PCM (powertrain control module, also known as ECM or engine control) has detected a problem in the injector or its wiring, or in injector circuit for cylinder 3. Any code that causes the vehicle's engine to die while running should be fixed as soon as possible, as it can be dangerous for both the vehicle and the passengers of the vehicle.
Symptoms
Symptoms of a B0074 Fiat 12 Hp diagnostic trouble code may include:
- Faulty or damaged wiring
- The engine oil will exhibit dilution from the ECUs attempts to increase engine temperature. Some vehicles advance the fuel injection timing slightly after top center to afterburn a small amount of fuel to increase exhaust temperatures. Some of this fuel enters the crankcase. When the ECU determines the necessity to regenerate the DPF, the service life of the oil be shortened significantly
- Poor fuel economy
- The light may stay on or light intermittently as the DPF regenerates. The engine will be sluggish on acceleration.
|
Possible Causes :
- An air leak forward of the DPF will change the sensor readings resulting in the code
- Rusty exhaust systems, cracked exhaust manifolds or damaged or missing gaskets or donuts will cause air leaks.
- A large vacuum leak would cause a massive amount of un-metered air to enter the intake manifold resulting in an overly lean mixture.

Common Misdiagnoses
- IC Circuit High Voltage Problem
- Control Module Throttle Actuator Position Performance Problem
- Air Conditioning (A/C) Clutch Feedback Circuit High Voltage Problem
- Cruise Vehicle Speed/Set Speed Difference Too High Problem
- PCM Stack Overrun Problem
Repair Processes :
If you find a related TSB, the information will often help in diagnosing the code in question as TSBs are crested from many thousands of repairs.
With the valve disconnected, the red voltmeter lead should be attached to the IMRC valve power wire and the black voltmeter lead connected to ground.
Oxygen sensors signal the engine management computer the amount of oxygen present in the exhaust, which is used in determining and controlling the fuel ratio.
Process Tips

Diagnosing this code requires the engine to be in good running shape, without unmetered air entering the engine. If other codes that relates to misfiring condition, lean running or air entering the engine is present, then you must first fix those error codes before B0074 Fiat 12 Hp.
Fortunately, B0074 Fiat 12 Hp is a fairly common OBD code, meaning that it applies to all makes and models of vehicles made after 1996.
