Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch "D"/"E" Voltage Correlation Signal Cross Coupled

Diagnosis condition:

  • Ignition switch ON

Abnormal condition:

  • Difference between VPA and VPA2 is 0.02 V or less.

Malfunction time:

  • 2 seconds or more

Trip logic:

  • 1 trip detection logic

Detection conditions:

  • Continuous

Sensors/components used for detection:

  • Accelerator pedal sensor assembly
  • Accelerator pedal sensor assembly
  • Short between VPA and VPA2 circuits
  • ECM

  • SAE Code: P2138
  • DTC for Mexico Models: Applies

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

When the ignition switch is turned ON and the difference in the output voltage of VPA and VPA2 is 0.02 V or less for 2 seconds or more, the ECM determines that the accelerator pedal sensor assembly circuit is malfunctioning and illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

FAIL-SAFE

When these DTCs are stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. If either of the 2 sensor circuits malfunctions, the ECM limits the engine output. If both of the circuits malfunction, the ECM regards the accelerator pedal as being released. As a result, the throttle valve is closed and the engine idles.

Fail-safe mode continues until a pass condition is detected, and the ignition switch is turned off.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

HINT:

Read Freeze Frame Data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
