DTC P2138 THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH “D” / “E” VOLTAGE RATIONALITY

OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS

Judge NG when the signal level of throttle position sensor 1 is different from the throttle position sensor 2.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION


(1)

Engine control module (ECM)

(3)

Accelerator pedal position sensor 2 signal.

(2)

Accelerator pedal position sensor 1 signal.

(4)

Accelerator pedal position sensor



ENABLE CONDITION

Secondary Parameters Enable Conditions

Time Needed for Diagnosis:


116 milliseconds (For NG)

1000 milliseconds (For OK)


Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates as soon as malfunction occurs.

DTC CLEAR CONDITION


When the OK idling cycle was completed 40 times in a row

When “Clear Memory” was performed


MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT CLEAR CONDITION


When the OK driving cycle was completed 3 times in a row

When “Clear Memory” was performed


FAIL SAFE

Fix the throttle opening angle to 6°.
