DTC P2138

APP sensor No.1/No.2 voltage correlation problem

DETECTION CONDITION

• The PCM compares the input voltage from APP sensor No.1 with the input voltage from APP sensor No.2 when the engine is running. If the difference is more than the specification, the PCM determines that there is an APP sensor No.1/No.2 angle correlation problem.

Diagnostic support note

• This is a continuous monitor (CCM).

• The MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle.

• PENDING CODE is available if the PCM detects the above malfunction conditions.

• FREEZE FRAME DATA is available.

• The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

• APP sensor No.1 malfunction

• APP sensor No.2 malfunction

• Connector or terminal malfunction

• PCM malfunction

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
