Mitsubishi Outlander XL. Manual - part 377

CIRCUIT OPERATION

｠

A 5-volt power supply is applied on the accelerator
pedal  position  sensor  (main)  power  terminal
(terminal No. 1) from the ECM (terminal No. 75).
The ground terminal (terminal No. 2) is grounded
with ECM (terminal No. 76).

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

｠

The  accelerator  pedal  position  sensor  (main)
outputs  voltage  which  corresponds  to  the
accelerator pedal depression.

｠

The  ECM  checks  whether  the  voltage  is  within  a
specified range.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

Accelerator  pedal  position  sensor  (main)  output
voltage is out of specified range.

None.

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

｠

Accelerator pedal position sensor failed.

｠

Connector damage.

｠

Harness damage.

｠

ECM failed.

 

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

｠

MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

｠

MB991824: V.C.I.

｠

MB991827: USB Cable

｠

MB991910: Main Harness A

STEP 1. Check harness connector C-123 at accelerator
pedal position sensor and harness connector B-11 at ECM
for damage.

Q:Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES:

 Go to Step 2.

NO:

 Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection P.00E-2. Then go to Step 4.

STEP 2. Check the continuity at accelerator pedal position
sensor harness side connector C-123.

(1)

Disconnect the connector C-123 and measure at the harness
side.

(2)

Measure the continuity between terminal No. 2 and ground.

｠

Should be less than 2 ohms.

Q:Does continuity exist?

YES:

 Go to Step 3.

NO:

 Repair it. Then go to Step 4.

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition  switch  to  the  "LOCK"  (OFF)  position  before
connecting 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)

Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item
11, Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (main).

｠

Output voltage is between 0.9 and 1.1 volts when foot is
released from accelerator pedal.

｠

Output  voltage  is  4.0  volts  or  higher  when  accelerator
pedal is fully depressed.

(4)

Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q:Is the sensor operating properly?

YES:

 Go to Step 4.

NO:

 Replace the accelerator pedal position sensor. Then

go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).

(1)

Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.

(2)

Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3)

Read the DTC again.

(4)

Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q:Is DTC P2123 set?

YES:

 Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced, register

the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, ID Code Registration
Judgment Table <Vehicles with KOS> P.42B-12or GROUP
42C, ID Code Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with
WCM> P.42C-8.

NO:

 It can be assumed that this malfunction is

intermittent. Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope
with Intermittent Malfunctions P.00-15.
