P2122, P2123 APP SENSOR

Description

INFOID:0000000009720172

The accelerator pedal position sensor is installed on the upper end
of the accelerator pedal assembly. The sensor detects the accelera-
tor position and sends a signal to the ECM.
Accelerator pedal position sensor has two sensors. These sensors
are a kind of potentiometer which transform the accelerator pedal
position into output voltage, and emit 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 engine operations such as fuel cut.

DTC DETECTION LOGIC

NOTE:
If DTC P2122 or P2123 is displayed with DTC P0643, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0643.
Refer to 

EC-352, "DTC Logic"

.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

PRECONDITIONING

YES

>> Go to 

EC-419, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO

>> INSPECTION END

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000009720174

1.

CHECK GROUND CONNECTION

1.

Turn ignition switch OFF.

2.

PBIB1741E

DTC No.

Trouble diagnosis name

DTC detecting condition

Possible cause

P2122

Accelerator pedal posi-
tion sensor 1 circuit low 
input

An excessively low voltage from the APP sen-
sor 1 is sent to ECM.

• Harness or connectors

(APP sensor 1 circuit is open or shorted.)

• Accelerator pedal position sensor

(APP sensor 1)

P2123

Accelerator pedal posi-
tion sensor 1 circuit high 
input

An excessively high voltage from the APP sen-
sor 1 is sent to ECM.
