DTC P0120 Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch ºAº
Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The throttle position sensor is mounted in the throttle body and
detects the throttle valve opening angle. When the throttle valve
is fully closed, the IDL1 contacts in the throttle position sensor
are on, so the voltage at the terminal IDL1 of the ECM becomes
0 V. At this time, a voltage of approximately 0.7 V is applied to
terminal VTA1 of the ECM. When the throttle valve is opened,
the IDL1 contacts go off and thus the power source voltage of
approximately 12 V in the ECM is applied to the terminal IDL1
of the ECM. The voltage applied to the terminal VTA1 of the
ECM increases in proportion to the opening angle of the throttle
valve and becomes approximately 3.2  - 4.9 V when the throttle
valve is fully opened. The ECM judges the vehicle driving condi-
tions from these signals input from terminals VTA1 and IDL1,
and uses them as one of the conditions for deciding the air-fuel
ratio correction, power increases correction  and  fuel-cut  con-
trol etc.

If there is open circuit in IDL line, DTC P0120 does not indicate.
After confirming DTC P0120 use the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester to confirm the
throttle valve opening percentage and closed throttle position switch condition.
