OPERATION
  • Refer to Code No. P2127 Accelerator Pedal Circuit Position Sensor (sub) Circuit .
  • Refer to Inspection Procedure 32: Accelerator Pedal Position Switch Circuit .
FUNCTION
  • Engine-A/T-ECU checks the accelerator pedal position sensor (sub) output signal characteristics for abnormal conditions.
TROUBLE JUDGMENT
Check Conditions
  • Ignition switch is in "ON" position
  • Closed throttle position switch: ON
  • Accelerator pedal position sensor (main) failure is detected.
Judgment Criterion
  • Accelerator pedal position sensor (sub) output voltage is 2.5 V or higher for 1 second.
PROBABLE CAUSE
  • Failed accelerator pedal position sensor
  • Open/short circuit in accelerator pedal position sensor circuit or loose connector contact
  • Failed accelerator pedal position switch
  • Open/short circuit in accelerator pedal position switch circuit or loose connector contact
  • Failed engine-A/T-ECU
