Trouble Code Number
- Scan tool 26
- General Scan Tool P0122
- MIL 24
Fault Message
- Throttle Position Sensor Voltage Low
Background
- The sensor consists of a variable resistor that provides a voltage signal to the PCM based on the position of the throttle bade.
- The PCM uses throttle blade position information to adjust fuel injector pulse width.
Range of Check
- Ignition switch: ON
Set Condition
- Throttle position sensor output voltage remains less than 0.2V for 1 second.
Probable Cause
- Sensor signal circuit shorted to ground
- Throttle position sensor failed
- Loss of 5-volt supply
