Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit Description
Battery voltage is supplied to +BM circuit at ECM as the power source for the Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS). DTC is set if battery voltage does not exist on +BM circuit at ECM for ETCS. If DTC P1127 exists, ECM will turn off the power to throttle control motor and throttle valve is closed by the return spring. When this occurs, throttle valve is controlled by throttle cable connected to accelerator pedal. Possible causes are:
- ETCS power source circuit is open.
- Defective ECM.
