G: DTC P0120
—THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT
MALFUNCTION (THV)—
OBD0182A
DESCRIPTION:
A throttle position sensor is provided with a potentiom-
eter which is interlocked with the throttle valve shaft.
This throttle position sensor sends the ECM a potenti-
ometer output signal corresponding to the opening of the
throttle valve. When the level of this signal exceeds a pre-
determined value, the ECM interprets it as complete clo-
sure of the throttle valve and makes a control most suitable
for the engine operation with the throttle valve fully closed.
For correcting error of this signal, the ECM is provided with
a learning function.
Thus, the ECM precisely controls the air-fuel ratio dur-
ing acceleration and deceleration as well as engine idling.
DTC DETECTING CONDITION:
Immediately at fault recognition
TROUBLE SYMPTOM:
Erroneous idling
Engine stalls.
Poor driving performance

READ DATA.
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF.

5) Read data on Subaru Select Monitor or OBD-II general
scan tool.
Subaru Select Monitor
Designate mode using function key.
Function mode: F10
F10: Throttle position sensor output signal is indicated.
: Is the voltage less than 0.1 V?
: Go to step 2.
: Go to next.
: Is the voltage more than 4.9 V?
: Go to step 4.
: Even if MIL lights up, the circuit has returned to a
normal condition at this time. A temporary poor
contact of the connector may be the cause. Check
and repair the following connectors.
Throttle position sensor connector.

EXHAUST GAS.
: Is CO % more than 2 % after engine warm-
up?
: Check fuel system.
NOTE:
Check for use of improper fuel.
Check if engine oil or coolant level is extremely low.
