TEST ACTION APPLICABILITY
1NOTE: If DTC P1611, P2306 or P2332 is present with this DTC, diagnose
DTCs P1611, P2306 or P2332 before diagnosing this DTC.
NOTE: If the ECM detects and stores a DTC, the ECM also stores the
engine/vehicle operating conditions under which the DTC was set. Some of
these conditions are displayed on the DRB at the same time the DTC is
displayed.
NOTE: Before erasing stored DTCs, record these conditions. Attempting to
duplicate these conditions may assist when checking for an active DTC.
NOTE: The APP Sensor is a device that contains 2 separate potentiometer
type sensors. Each sensor has its own 5-volt supply circuit, sensor ground
circuit and signal circuit. The APP Sensor no longer incorporates a low-idle
switch.
NOTE: The APP Sensor 2 signal should always be approximately 1/2 the
voltage of the APP Sensor 1 signal.
Turn the ignition on.
Using a voltmeter, backprobe the APP Sensor 1 and APP Sensor 2 Signal circuits at
the APP Sensor harness connector with the accelerator pedal in the at rest position.
Is the voltage between 0.28 and 0.37 volt for sensor 1 and 0.10 and 0.19 volt for sensor
2?All
Ye s!Go To 2
No!Go To 5
2 Turn the ignition on.
Fully depress the accelerator pedal.
Using a voltmeter backprobe the APP Sensor harness connector and read the voltage
for APP Sensor 1 and APP Sensor 2 Signal circuits.
Is the voltage between 4.45 and 4.75 volts for #1 and 2.15 and 2.45 volts for #2?All
Ye s!Go To 3
No!Go To 5
3 Turn the ignition on.
With the DRB, read the APP Sensor 1 and APP Sensor 2 percentages (%).
With the accelerator pedal in the idle position, slowly depress the accelerator pedal
until the pedal is fully depressed.
NOTE: The percentage readings for APP Sensors 1 and 2 should increase
smoothly as the pedal is depressed.
NOTE: This test can also performed using a voltmeter by back probing each
APP Sensor Signal circuit at the APP Sensor harness connector and
observing the voltmeter for a smooth voltage change through the entire
pedal travel.
Does the percentage (voltage) increase smoothly for both readings with the acceler-
ator pedal travel?All
Ye s!Go To 4
No!Replace the Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor in accordance with
the Service Information.
