.

CIRCUIT OPERATION
The throttle position sensor signal and idle position 
signal are sent to the auto-cruise control-ECU 
through this circuit.
The throttle position sensor sends a voltage signal to 
terminal 1 of the auto-cruise control-ECU. The volt-
age depends on throttle opening angle.
The auto-cruise control-ECU receives an idle posi-
tion signal from the PCM at terminal 2. The signal is 
OFF when the accelerator pedal is depressed, and 
ON when the accelerator pedal is released.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

• The Idle position signal is ON and the throttle 

position sensor voltage is 2.5 volts or more for 
four seconds or more.

• The Idle position signal is OFF and the throttle 

position sensor voltage is 0.2 volts or less for four 
seconds or more.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
The most likely causes for this code to be set are:

• Malfunction of the throttle position sensor

• Damaged harness or connector

• Malfunction of the auto-cruise control-ECU

• Malfunction of the PCM

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan tool (MUT-III sub assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: MUT-III USB cable

• MB991911: MUT-III main harness B

• MB991223: Harness set

STEP 1. Check the throttle position sensor.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2)  Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Read the MFI-DTC.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Are the MFI-DTC P0121, P122 or P123 set?

YES : Refer to GROUP 13A, Diagnosis 

− Diagnostic

P.13A-26

.

NO :  Go to Step 2 .

STEP 2. Measure the output circuit voltage at auto-cruise 
control-ECU connector C-35 by backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect auto-cruise control-ECU connector C-35.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position and the 

auto-cruise control main switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between auto-cruise control-ECU 

connector C-35 terminal 1 and ground by backprobing.

• Voltage should measure between 4.0 and 5.5 volts. 

(When accelerator pedal is fully depressed).]

• Voltage should measure between 0.4 and 1.0 volts. 

(When accelerator pedal is released).

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Are all of the measured voltage satisfied?

YES : Go to Step 5 .
NO :  Go to Step 3 .

STEP 3. Check auto-cruise control-ECU connector C-35 for 
loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals 
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is the connector damaged?

YES : Repair or replace the damaged components. (Refer 

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

). Then Go to Step 10 .

NO :  Go to Step 4 .
