DTC P2127, P2128 APP SENSOR
PFP:18002
Component Description
ABS002SU
Electric throttle control actuator consists of throttle control motor,
acceleration pedal position sensor, throttle position sensor, etc.
Accelerator pedal position sensor is connected to the accelerator
pedal through the throttle drum and accelerator wire, and detects the
accelerator pedal position by the throttle drum rotation angle.
Accelerator pedal position sensor has two sensors. These sensors
are a kind of potentiometers which transform the accelerator pedal
position into output voltage, and emit the voltage signal to the ECM.
In addition, these sensors detect the opening and closing speed of
the accelerator pedal and feed the voltage signals to the ECM. The
ECM judges the current opening angle of the accelerator pedal from
these signals and controls the throttle control motor based on these
signals.
Idle position of the accelerator pedal is determined by the ECM receiving the signal from the accelerator pedal
position sensor. The ECM uses this signal for the engine operation such as fuel cut.
CONSULT-II Reference Value in Data Monitor Mode
ABS002SV
Specification data are reference values.
*: Accelerator pedal position sensor 2 signal is converted by ECM internally. Thus, it differ from ECM terminal voltage signal.
On Board Diagnosis Logic
ABS002SW
NOTE:
If DTC P2127, P2128 is displayed with DTC P1229, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P1229.
Refer to
EC-531
.
These self-diagnoses have the one trip detection logic.
FAIL-SAFE MODE
When the malfunction is detected, ECM enters fail-safe mode and the MIL lights up.

DTC detecting condition
Possible cause
P1227
1227
Accelerator pedal position
sensor 2 circuit low input
An excessively low voltage from the APP
sensor 2 is sent to ECM.
●
Harness or connectors
(The APP sensor 2 circuit is open or
shorted.)
●
Accelerator pedal position sensor
(Accelerator pedal position sensor 2)
P1228
1228
Accelerator pedal position
sensor 2 circuit high input
An excessively high voltage from the APP
sensor 2 is sent to ECM.
Engine operating condition in fail-safe mode
The ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator in regulating the throttle opening in order for the idle position to be within +10
degrees.
The ECM regulates the opening speed of the throttle valve to be slower than the normal condition.
So, the acceleration will be poor.
