DTC P2127-00: Accelerator Position Sensor 2 Signal Circuit Low Input: General Description
The Accelerator Pedal Sensor (APS) is a very important sensor which controls the fuel amount by transmitting the driver's accelerating intention to the ECM. The APS is divided into APS 1, 2 because its reliability is important. The APS 1, 2 are composed with the independent power and ground. APS 2 shows the 1/2 output of the APS1 and decides the fault if the ratio of APS 1, 2 is different. When the APS 1 is out of order, the signal of APS 2 can be substituted instead of APS 1 and vise versa.
