P1225 TP SENSOR

P1225 TP SENSOR

Component Description

INFOID:0000000009481050

Electric throttle control actuator consists of throttle control motor,

throttle position sensor, etc. The throttle position sensor responds to

the throttle valve movement.

The throttle position sensor has two sensors. These sensors are a

kind of potentiometers which transform the throttle valve position into

output voltage, and emit the voltage signal to the ECM. In addition,

these sensors detect the opening and closing speed of the throttle

valve and feed the voltage signals to the ECM. The ECM judges the

current opening angle of the throttle valve from these signals and the

ECM controls the throttle control motor to make the throttle valve

opening angle properly in response to driving condition.

On Board Diagnosis Logic

INFOID:0000000009481051

The MIL will not light up for this self-diagnosis.

DTC Confirmation Procedure

INFOID:0000000009481052

NOTE:

If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch OFF and wait at

least 10 seconds before conducting the next test.

TESTING CONDITION:

Before performing the following procedure, confirm that battery voltage is more than 10V at idle.

WITH CONSULT

1. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Check 1st trip DTC.
4. If 1st trip DTC is detected, go to

EC-368, "Diagnosis Procedure"

WITH GST

Follow the procedure “With CONSULT” above.

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000009481053

CHECK ELECTRIC THROTTLE CONTROL ACTUATOR VISUALLY

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.

2. Remove the intake air duct.

3. Check if foreign matter is caught between the throttle valve and

the housing.

OK or NG

>> GO TO 2.

>> Remove the foreign matter and clean the electric throttle

control actuator inside, and then perform throttle valve

closed position learning. Refer to

EC-123, "Throttle

Valve Closed Position Learning"
