Signal Too Low - Intermittent Fault
Checking Wiring And Connectors
Check accelerator pedal (AP) position sensor connector for contact resistance and oxidation according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults (under Related Tests and Information)
Check cable between engine control module (ECM) #B25 (#B35) and accelerator pedal (AP) position sensor #2 for an intermittent short-circuit to supply voltage according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults (under Related Tests and Information).
Check cable between engine control module (ECM) #B25 (#B35) and accelerator pedal (AP) position sensor #2 for an intermittent open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults (under Related Tests and Information).
Check power supply cable accelerator pedal (AP) position sensor #1 and fuse (see wiring diagram) for an intermittent open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults (under Related Tests and Information) also check that the fuse has not blown.
Check ground lead between accelerator pedal (AP) position sensor #3 and ground terminal (see wiring diagram) for an intermittent open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults (under Related Tests and Information).
Remedy as necessary.
