When Monitored:
With the engine running and no MAP Sensor or TP Sensor DTC’s set. Engine speed must be greater than
1600 RPM.
Set Condition:
The PCM performs two separate tests. When the manifold vacuum is high, the TP Sensor should be low.
When the manifold vacuum is low, the TP Sensor signal should be high. If the proper TP Sensor voltage is not
detected when the two conditions are met, a DTC will be set after 4 seconds.
