CAUTION:
This inspection procedure cannot be completed correctly if the accelerator pedal position sensor has a malfunction. Before performing this procedure, verify that any one of the DTCs related to the accelerator pedal position sensor is not detected.
NOTE:
Before performing the following inspection, make sure to follow the procedure as indicated in the troubleshooting flowchart. (See HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL.)
1. Verify that no DTC related to APP sensor has been detected.
If any DTCs related to APP sensor have been detected, perform the DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE [LF].)
2. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC‐2.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
4. Select TP1 or TP2 PID (percentage) on the M-MDS.
5. Verify that the TP1 or TP2 PID is within the specification when the accelerator pedal not depressed. (See PCM INSPECTION [LF].)
6. Operate the accelerator pedal and verify that the TP1 or TP2 PID (percentage) changes as shown in the following graph.
If not verified, perform the “Circuit Open/Short Inspection”.
If there is no open or short circuit, replace the throttle body. (See INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [LF].)
1. Disconnect the PCM connector. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [LF].)
2. Disconnect the throttle body connector.
3. Inspect the following wiring harnesses for an open or short circuit. (Continuity inspection)
If there is no continuity in the following wiring harnesses, there is an open circuit. Repair or replace the wiring harness.
Throttle body terminal C and PCM terminal 2AP
Throttle body terminal D and PCM terminal 2AL
Throttle body terminal E and PCM terminal 2AO
Throttle body terminal F and PCM terminal 2AK
If there is continuity in the following wiring harnesses, there is a short circuit. Repair or replace the wiring harness.
Throttle body terminal C and power supply
Throttle body terminal D and body ground
Throttle body terminal D and power supply
Throttle body terminal E and body ground
Throttle body terminal F and body ground
Throttle body terminal F and power supply
