DTC P060D: Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Plausibility

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

Compare the output value of the accelerator pedal position sensor (main) with that of the accelerator pedal position sensor (sub).

MONITOR EXECUTION

Continuous

MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS (Other monitor and Sensor)

Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC stored in memory for the item monitored below)

- Not applicable
Sensor (The sensor below is determined to be normal)

- Not applicable

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Logic Flow Chart





Check Condition

- Change of accelerator pedal position sensor (sub) output voltage per 40 milliseconds is lower than 0.06 volt.
- Range/performance error of accelerator pedal position sensor (main and sub) circuit is not detected.
Judgment Criterion

- Voltage obtained with the formula given below is 0.4 volt or higher for 0.5 second: accelerator pedal position sensor (main) output voltage - accelerator pedal position sensor (sub) output voltage.

NOTE:
The accelerator pedal position sensor voltage used for the judgement is converted into the accelerator pedal position sensor voltage for the internal processing by the ECM.

FAIL-SAFE AND BACKUP FUNCTION

- Throttle opening degree position is in default position.

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN

- None.

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

- Accelerator pedal position sensor failed.
- 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. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).





CAUTION:
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)Read the DTC.
(4)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q. Is the diagnostic trouble code other than P060D set?

YES Refer to, Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart Multiport Fuel Injection (MFI).

NO Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list.

(1)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(2)Check the following item in the data list. Refer to Data List Reference Table Data List Reference Table.
1. Item 11: Accelerator pedal position sensor (main)

2. Item 12: Accelerator pedal position sensor (sub)

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

Q. Is the sensor operating properly?

YES Go to Step 3.
NO Repair or replace it. Then go to Step 4.
STEP 3. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble code
(DTC).

(1)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(2)After the DTC has been deleted, read the DTC again.

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

Q. Is DTC P060D set?

YES Replace the ECM (Refer to, Removal and Installation Removal and Replacement).
Then go to Step 4.
NO It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. How to Cope With Intermittent Malfunctions.
STEP 4. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble code
(DTC).

(1)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(2)Read the DTC.

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

Q. Is DTC P060D set?

YES Retry the troubleshooting.
NO The inspection is complete.
