DTC P0123 (7-2):  TP Sensor Circuit High Voltage


1.Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

2.Check the throttle position with the scan tool.

Is there about 10% or 0.5 V when the throttle is fully closed and about 90% or 4.5 V when the throttle is fully opened?


YES - Intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose wires at the TP sensor and at the  ECM/ PCM.n


NO - Go to 3.


3.Turn the ignition switch OFF.

4.Disconnect the TP sensor 3P connector.

5.Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

6.At the wire harness side, measure voltage between the TP sensor 3P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 3.

 

Is there about 5 V?


YES - Replace the throttle body.n


NO - Go to 7.

7.Measure voltage between ECM/PCM connector terminals A10 and A20.

 

Is there about 5 V?


YES - Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (A10) and the TP sensor.n


NO - Substitute a known-good ECM/PCM and recheck. If symptom/indication goes away, replace the original  ECM/ PCM.n
