Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
P1516 Command - Actual TPS Correlation Error
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).

This DTC detects the difference between actual
throttle position and command throttle position in
steady state.
Conditions for setting the DTC

The ignition is ªONº.

Throttle Actuation mode is normal.

Command Throttle position-Actual Throttle position is
less than 8 % when desired TPS is steady within 0.5
% for 30 seconds within test samples (30 second)
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 P1516 will clear after 40 consecutive trip
cycles during which the warm up cycles have occurred
without a fault.

DTC P1516 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
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 Tech2 while
moving connectors and wiring harnesses related to the
sensor.
A change in the display will indicate the location of
the fault. If DTC P1516 cannot be duplicated, the

information included in the Failure Records data can

Circuit Description

The throttle position (TP) sensor circuit provides a

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).

This DTC detects if the throttle return to the default
position at key on is steady.
Conditions for setting the DTC

The ignition is ªONº.

Normalized TPS is less than 7 % or Normalized TPS
is more than 25 %.
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.
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 P1523 will clear after 40 consecutive trip
cycles during which the warm up cycles have occurred
without a fault.
