DTC P0122 (7-1): | TP Sensor Circuit Low Voltage |
1. | Turn the ignition switch ON(II). |
2. | Check the throttle position with the HDS or 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 terminals 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. | Measure voltage between the TP sensor 3P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 3.
Is there about 5 V? YES - Go to 7. NO - Go to 14. |
7. | Turn the ignition switch OFF. |
8. | At the sensor side, measure resistance between the TP sensor 3P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2 with the throttle fully closed.
Is there about 0.5-0.9 kW? YES - Go to 9. NO - Replace the throttle body.n |
9. | Measure resistance between the TP sensor 3P connector terminals No. 2 and No. 3 with the throttle fully closed.
Is there about 4.5kW? YES - Go to 10. NO - Replace the throttle body (the TP sensor is not available separately).n |
10. | Disconnect ECM/PCM connector A (31P). |
11. | At the wire harness side, check for continuity between TP sensor 3P connector terminal No. 2 and body ground.
Is there continuity? YES - Repair short in the wire between the ECM/PCM (A15) and the TP sensor.n NO - Go to 12. |
12. | Connect ECM/PCM connector terminal A15 and body ground with a jumper wire.
|
13. | At the wire harness side, check for continuity between TP sensor 3P connector terminals No. 2 and body ground.
Is there continuity? YES - Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good ECM/PCM, replace the original ECM/ PCM.n NO - Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (A15) and the TP sensor.n |
14. | 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 (A20) and the TP sensor.n NO - Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good ECM/PCM, replace the original ECM/ PCM.n |
