INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:

If DTCs related to different system that have terminal E2 as the ground terminal are output simulta-
neously, terminal E2 may have an open circuit.

Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions
when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the
vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air±fuel ratio was lean or
rich, as well as other data from the time when a malfunction occurred.

Circuit Range/Performance Problem
HINT:
This is the purpose of the ºthrottle position sensorº.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P0120 on page DI±127.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0121
Condition (a) continues for 2.0 sec.:
(a) Difference between VTA1 and VTA2 deviates from the
threshold
Throttle control motor and sensor
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses throttle position sensor to monitor the throttle valve opening angle.
This sensor includes two signals, VTA1 and VTA2. VTA1 is used to detect the throttle opening angle and
VTA2 is used to detect malfunctions in VTA1. There are several checks that the ECM performs confirm prop-
er operation of the throttle position sensor and VTA1.
There is a specific voltage difference expected between VTA1 and VTA2 for each throttle opening angle.
If the voltage output difference of the VTA1 and VTA2 deviates from the normal operating range, the ECM
interprets this as a malfunction of the throttle position sensor. The ECM will turn on the MIL and a DTC is
set.
FAIL SAFE
If the ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) has a malfunction, the ECM cuts off current to the throttle
control motor. The throttle control valve returns to a predetermined opening angle (approximately 16°) by
the force of the return spring. The ECM then adjusts the engine output by controlling the fuel infection (inter-
mittent fuel±cut) and ignition timing in accordance with the accelerator pedal opening angle to enable the
vehicle to continue at a minimum speed.
If the accelerator pedal is depressed firmly and slowly, the vehicle can be driven slowly.
If a ºpassº condition is detected and then the ignition switch is turned OFF, the fail±safe operation will stop
and the system will return to normal condition.

DTC P0125 Insufficient Coolant Temperature
for Closed Loop Fuel Control
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P0115 on page DI±119.
DTC No.DTC Detection ConditionTrouble Area
If THW or THA is less than ±19.45°C (±3°F) at engine start
and 20 min. or more after starting engine, engine coolant
temp. sensor value is 20°C (68°F) or less (2 trip detection
logic)
P0125
If THW and THA is between ±19.45°C (±3°F) and ±8.34°C
(17°F) at engine start, 5 min. or more after starting engine
and engine coolant temp. sensor value is 20°C (68°F) or
less (2 trip detection logic)
Cooling system

Engine coolant temperature sensor

Thermostat
If THW and THA greater than ±8.34°C (17°F) at engine
start and 2 min. or more after starting engine, engine cool-
ant temp. sensor value is 20°C (68°F) or less (2 trip detec-
tion logic)
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECT (Engine Coolant Temperature) sensor is used to monitor the temperature of the engine coolant.
The resistance of the sensor varies with the actual coolant temperature. The ECM applies a voltage to the
sensor and the varying resistance of the sensor cause the signal voltage to vary. The ECM monitors the ECT
signal voltage after engine start±up.
If, after sufficient time has passed, the sensor still reports that the engine
is not warmed up enough for closed±loop fuel control after sufficient time has passed, the ECM interprets
this as a fault in the sensor or cooling system and sets a DTC.
Example:
The engine coolant temperature was 0C (32F) at engine start. After 5 min. running time, the ECT sensor
still indicates that the engine is not warmed up enough to begin air fuel ratio feedback control of the air±fuel
ratio. The ECM interprets this as a fault in the sensor or cooling system and will set a DTC.
