P1221 TPS1 ± TPS2 Correlation(Circuit Performance)
060R200069
Circuit Description

The powertrain control module (PCM) controls engine
speed by adjusting the position of the throttle control
valve (DC motor). The throttle motor is a DC motor
driven by one coil. The PCM applies current to DC
motor coil in duty (%) to adjustment the valve into a
passage in the throttle body to air flow.
This method allows highly accurate control of engine
speed and quick response to changes in engine
load.

The accelerator position (AP) sensor circuit provides a
voltage signal relative to accelerator pedal angle.
The accelerator pedal angle (AP1) will vary from
about 13% at idle position to about 87% at open
throttle(WOT).
APS signal is used to determine which DC will adjust
throttle position.
After the APS signal has been processed by the
PCM, it will command the DC motor to move the
throttle position.

Accelerator pedal ± Check for objects blocking the AP
sensor or pedal arm with spring, and excessive
deposits in the accelerator pedal arm and on the
accelerator pedal.
Conditions for Setting the DTC

The ignition is ªONº.
A difference of between TPS1 and TPS2 correlation of
over 6.5% within 125 milliseconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The PCM will not turn the malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) ªONº.

The PCM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Failure Records only. This
information will not be stored as Freeze Frame data.
Condition for Clearing the MIL/DTC

A history DTC 1221 will clear after 40 consecutive trip
cycles during which the warm up cycles have occurred
without a fault.

DTC 1221 can be cleared using the Tech 2 ªClear Infoº
function or by disconnecting the PCM battery feed.

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P1295 ETC Power Management Mode
D06RY00111
Circuit Description

The throttle position (TP) sensor circuit provides a
voltage signal relative to throttle position (blade angle).
The throttle blade angle will vary from about 8 % at
closed throttle to about 92 % at wide open throttle
(WOT).

The DC motor circuit provides a voltage signal relative
to command throttle position (blade angle).

The mass air flow (MAF) sensor measures the amount
of air which passes through it into the engine during a
given time. The powertrain Control Module (PCM)
uses the mass air flow information to monitor engine
operating conditions for fuel delivery calculations.
A large quantity of air entering the engine indicates
an accelerator or high load situation, while a small
quantity or air indicates deceleration or idle.
The MAF sensor produces a frequency signal which
can be monitored using a Tech 2. The frequency will
vary within a range of around 4 to 7g/s at idle to
around 25 to 40g/s at maximum engine load.

This DTC detects that if the system is in Power
Management Mode.(Fail safe Mode)
Conditions for setting the DTC

The ignition is ªONº.

Power Management Mode is active. (Fail safe Mode)
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The PCM will illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) the first time the fault is detected.

The PCM calculates an air flow value based on throttle
blade position, RPM and barometric pressure.

The PCM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Freeze Frame and in the
Failure Records data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

The PCM will turn the MIL ªOFFº on the third
consecutive trip cycle during which the diagnostic has
been run and the fault condition is no longer present.

A history DTC P1295 will clear after 40 consecutive trip
cycles during which the warm up cycles have occurred
without a fault.

DTC P1295 can be cleared using the Tech 2 ªClear
Infoº function or by disconnecting the PCM battery
feed.
Diagnostic Aids
An intermittent may be caused by the following:

Poor connections.

Misrouted harness.

Rubbed through wire insulation.

Broken wire inside the insulation.
Check for the following conditions:

Poor connection at PCM-Inspect harness connectors
for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken

6E±452
6VE1 3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and
poor terminal to wire connection.

Damaged harness-Inspect the wiring harness for
damage. If the harness appears to be OK, observe the
TP sensor 1, TP sensor 2 display on the Tech 2 while
moving connectors and wiring harnesses related to the
sensor.
A change in the display will indicate the location of
the fault. If DTC P1295 cannot be duplicated, theinformation included in the Failure Records data can
be useful in determined vehicle mileage since the
DTC was last set.
If it is determining that the DTC occurs intermittently,
performing the DTC
P1295 Diagnostic Chart may isolate the cause of the
fault.

060R200068
Circuit Description
The Power Control Module (PCM) checks the validity of
the signals used in the ION Sensing module at the
following engine operating conditions.

The Deceleration Fuel Cut Off (DFCO) test is
performed to evaluate the Combustion Quality (CQ)
signal pulse width

If it is below a predetermined value, the value it is
expected to be during DFCO conditions. If the CQ
signal pulse width is above the predetermined
threshold, the fail counter will be incremented. If the
failure counter exceeds the calibration, then the test is
complete and a failure will be reported.

The Power Enrichment (PE) test is performed to
evaluate the Combustion Quality (CQ) signal pulse
width

If it is below a predetermined value, the value is
expected to be during PE conditions.
If the CQ signal pulse width is above the
predetermined threshold, the fail counter will be
incremented. If the failure counter exceeds the
calibration, then the test is complete and a failure will
be reported.

The Combustion Quality (CQ) test is performed to
check if inappropriate (CQ) signal status were
detected. If missing CQ pulses or multiple CQ pulses
or CQ pulse width calculation errors were detected, the
fail counter will be incremented. If the failure counter
exceeds the calibration, then the test is complete and
a failure will be reported.
Conditions for setting the DTC

Ignition voltage is between 10volt and 16 volts.

MAP sensor signal is between 26kPa and 100 kPa.

Fuel level is more than 19%.

Engine speed is between 650rpm and 6500rpm.

No Crank DTCs set.

No System voltage DTCs set.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The PCM will illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) the first time the fault is detected.

The PCM calculates an air flow value based on idle air
control valve position, throttle position, RPM and
barometric pressure.

The PCM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Freeze Frame and in the
Failure Records data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

The PCM will turn the MIL ªOFFº on the third
consecutive trip cycle during which the diagnostic has
been run and the fault condition is no longer present.

A history DTC P1310 will clear after 40 consecutive trip
