| CAUTION | If ECM replacement is instructed in following testing, always ensure ECM connectors and ground circuit are okay. If either are suspect, repair and repeat testing to confirm ECM malfunction. |
Circuit Description
The TP sensor is a variable resistor that monitors throttle opening. The ECM determines vehicle driving condition and adjusts air/fuel mixture accordingly. The CTP switch is located inside of TP sensor. If CTP switch is defective, TP sensor must be replaced. DTC is set if CTP switch does not turn on when vehicle is driven. Possible causes are
- Open in CTP switch circuit.
- CTP switch.
- ECM.
Note. If DTC P0110, P0115 and P0120 are output simultaneously, ground (E2) circuit may be open.
