DTC P0121 Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch ºAº
Circuit Range/Performance Problem
HINT:
This is the purpose of the ºthrottle position sensorº.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P0120 on page DI±127.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0121
Condition (a) continues for 2.0 sec.:
(a) Difference between VTA1 and VTA2 deviates from the
threshold
Throttle control motor and sensor
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses throttle position sensor to monitor the throttle valve opening angle.
This sensor includes two signals, VTA1 and VTA2. VTA1 is used to detect the throttle opening angle and
VTA2 is used to detect malfunctions in VTA1. There are several checks that the ECM performs confirm prop-
er operation of the throttle position sensor and VTA1.
There is a specific voltage difference expected between VTA1 and VTA2 for each throttle opening angle.
If the voltage output difference of the VTA1 and VTA2 deviates from the normal operating range, the ECM
interprets this as a malfunction of the throttle position sensor. The ECM will turn on the MIL and a DTC is
set.
FAIL SAFE
If the ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) has a malfunction, the ECM cuts off current to the throttle
control motor. The throttle control valve returns to a predetermined opening angle (approximately 16°) by
the force of the return spring. The ECM then adjusts the engine output by controlling the fuel infection (inter-
mittent fuel±cut) and ignition timing in accordance with the accelerator pedal opening angle to enable the
vehicle to continue at a minimum speed.
If the accelerator pedal is depressed firmly and slowly, the vehicle can be driven slowly.
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:

If DTC P0115, P0116, P0117, P0118 and P0125 are output simultaneously, engine coolant tempera-
ture sensor circuit may be open or short. Perform the troubleshooting of DTC P0115, P0117 or P0118
first.

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 Are there any other codes (besides DTC P0125) being output?
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the hand±held tester main switch ON.
(c) When using hand±held tester, enter the following menu: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC
INFO / CURRENT CODES.

Valve opening temperature is 80 to 84C (176 to 183F)
HINT:
Also check that the valve is completely closed under opening temperature as above.
NG Replace thermostat (See page CO±11).

3 Check cooling system.
CHECK:
Check that there is detect in the cooling system which causes overcool, such as abnormal radiator fan opera-
tion, modified cooling system and so on.
NG Repair or replace cooling system.

Engine coolant temperature sensor

ECM
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM estimates the coolant temperature based on starting temperature, engine loads, and engine
speeds. The ECM then compares the estimated temperature with the actual ECT (Engine Coolant Tempera-
ture). When the estimated coolant temperature reaches 75C (167F), the ECM checks the actual ECT. If
the actual ECT is less than 75C (167F), the ECM will interpret this as a fault in the thermostat or engine
cooling system and set a DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTER
HINT:

This confirmation driving pattern is used in steps 5, 8 and 11 of the following diagnostic troubleshooting
procedure when using either a hand±held tester.

Performing this confirmation pattern will activate the Heated Oxygen (HO2) sensor monitor. (The cata-
lyst monitor is performed simultaneously.) This is very useful for verifying the completion of a repair.
(a) Connect a hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the tester or scan tool ON.
(d) Clear DTCs (where set) (see page DI±43).
(e) If using a hand±held tester, select the following menu
items: DIAGNOSIS / CARB OBD II / READINESS
TESTS.
(f) Check that O2S EVAL is INCMPL (incomplete).
(g) Start the engine and warm it up.
(h) Drive the vehicle at between 40 mph and 70 mph (64 km/h
and 113 km/h) for at least 10 minutes.
(i) Note the state of the Readiness Tests items. Those items
will change to COMPL (complete) as O2S EVAL monitor
operates.
(j) On the tester, select the following menu items: DIAGNO-
SIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / PENDING
CODES and check if any DTCs (any pending DTCs) are
set.
HINT:
If O2S EVAL does not change to COMPL, and any pending
DTCs fail to set, extend the driving time.

The following A/F CONTROL procedure enables the technician to check and graph the voltage output of
the heated oxygen sensors.
For displaying the graph indication, first enter ºACTIVE TEST / A/F CONTROL / USER DATA,º then select
ºA/F B1,2S1and O2S B1,2S2º by pressing ºYESº button, and push ºENTERº button before pressing ºF4º

HINT:

If different DTCs that are related to different system are output simultaneously while terminal E2 is used
as a ground terminal, terminal E2 may be open.

Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions
when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for determining whether the vehicle
was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air±fuel ratio was lean or rich, etc. when
a malfunction occurred.
