DTC P2121 Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch ºDº

HINT:
This is repair procedure for the ºaccelerator pedal position sensorº.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P2120 on page DI±370.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P2121
Conditions (a) and (b) continue for 0.5 seconds:
(a) Difference between VPA and VPA2 exceeds the threshold
(b) IDL is OFFAccelerator pedal position sensor circuit
Accelerator pedal position sensor
ECM
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The accelerator pedal position sensor is mounted on the accelerator pedal bracket. The accelerator pedal
position sensor has 2 sensor elements/signal outputs: VPA1 and VPA2. VPA1 is used to detect the actual
accelerator pedal angle (used for engine control) and VPA2 is used to detect malfunctions in VPA1. When
the difference between the voltage outputs of VPA1 and VPA2 deviates from the standard, the ECM con-
cludes the accelerator pedal position sensor has a malfunction. The ECM turns on the MIL and a DTC is
set.
FAIL SAFE
The accelerator pedal position sensor has two (main and sub) sensor circuits. If a malfunction occurs in ei-
ther of the sensor circuits, the ECM detects the abnormal signal voltage difference between the two sensor
circuits and switches to limp mode. In limp mode, the remaining circuit is used to calculate the accelerator
pedal opening to allow the vehicle to continue driving.
If both circuits malfunction, the ECM regards the opening angle of the accelerator pedal to be fully closed.
In this case, the throttle valve will remain closed as if the engine is idling.
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.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
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.
1 Connect hand±held tester, and read the voltage for accelerator pedal position
sensor data.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the hand±held tes-
ter main switch ON.
(c) Enter the following menu: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED
OBD II / DATA LIST / ETCS / ACCEL POS #1 and ACCEL
POS #2.
CHECK:
Read the voltage for the accelerator pedal position sensor data.
OK:
Standard:
