DTC Description
DTC DETECTION LOGIC
| DTC | CONSULT screen terms (Trouble diagnosis content) | DTC detection condition | |
| P2133-00 | TP SEN 1/CIRC-B2 (Throttle/Pedal position sensor/switch "F" circuit high) | Diagnosis condition | Engine running at idle |
| Signal (terminal) | Throttle position sensor 1 (bank 2) signal | ||
| Threshold | An excessively high voltage from the TP sensor 1 is sent to ECM | ||
| Diagnosis delay time | - | ||
POSSIBLE CAUSE
- Harness or connectors [TP sensor 1 (bank 2) circuit is open or shorted.]
- Electric throttle control actuator (TP sensor 1) (bank 2)
FAIL-SAFE
Engine Control System
| Fail safe mode | Vehicle behavior |
|---|---|
| Device fix mode |
|
| Others | The ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator in regulating the throttle opening in order for the idle position to be within +10 degrees. The ECM regulates the opening speed of the throttle valve to be slower than the normal condition. So, the acceleration will be poor. |
