with a common 5 V reference circuit , a common low reference circuit, and two independent signal circuits. The TP sensors have opposite

functionality. TP sensor 1 signal voltage decreases from greater than 4 V at idle to less than 1 V at wide open throttle (WOT). TP sensor 2 signal

voltage increases from less than 1 V at idle to greater than 4 V at WOT.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* The ignition voltage is greater than 7 V.

* The ignition is ON, with the engine OFF, or the engine is operating.

* DTC P0121 runs continuously once the above conditions are met.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P0121

The TP sensor 1 disagrees greater than 9 percent from TP sensor 2, or TP sensor 1 disagrees greater than 9 percent from the predicted value for

greater than 1 s.

P0122

The ECM detects the TP sensor 1 signal voltage is less than 0.18 V for greater than 1 s.

P0123

The ECM detects the TP sensor 1 signal voltage is greater than 4.6 V for greater than 1 s.

P0221

The TP sensor 2 disagrees greater than 9 percent from TP sensor 1, or TP sensor 2 disagrees greater than 9 percent from the predicted value for

greater than 1 s.

P0222

The ECM detects the TP sensor 2 signal voltage is less than 0.16 V for greater than 1 s.

P0223

The ECM detects the TP sensor 2 signal voltage is greater than 4.9 V for greater than 1 s.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* DTCs P0121 and P0221 are Type B DTCs.

* DTCs P0122, P0123, P0222, and P0223 are Type A DTCs.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* DTCs P0121 and P0221 are Type B DTCs.

* DTCs P0122, P0123, P0222, and P0223 are Type A DTCs.

Diagnostic Aids

If there is a condition with the TP sensors the ECM defaults to reduced power mode for the entire ignition cycle, even if the condition is corrected.

sensors with a common 5 V reference circuit, a common low reference circuit, and 2 independent signal circuits.

The TP sensors have opposite functionality. TP sensor 1 signal voltage decreases and TP sensor 2 signal voltage increases as the accelerator pedal

increases to wide open throttle (WOT).

Conditions for Running the DTC

P0121

* DTCs P0102, P0103, P0107, P0108, P0112, P0113, P0117, P0118, P0335, or P0336 is not set.

* The engine speed is between 400-7,000 RPM.

* The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is between 69-127掳C (156-260掳F).

* The intake air temperature (IAT) is between -20 to +125掳C (-4 to +257掳F).

* The DTC runs continuously when the above conditions are met.

P0122, P0123, P0222, P0223

* DTC P06A3 is not set.

* The ignition is ON, or the engine is running.

* The engine is not operating in reduced power mode.

* The ignition voltage is greater than 6 V.

* The DTCs runs continuously when the above condition are met.

P2135

* DTCs P0121, P0122, P0123, P0222, P0223, or P06A3 are not set.

* The ignition is ON, or the engine is running.

* The engine is not operating in reduced power mode.

* The ignition voltage is greater than 6 V.

* The DTCs runs continuously when the above conditions are met.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P0121

The ECM detects that the TP sensor 1 voltage is stuck in range for less than 1 s.

P0122

The ECM detects that the TP sensor 1 voltage is less than 0.3 V for less than 1 s.

P0123

The ECM detects that the TP sensor 1 voltage is greater than 4.8 V for less than 1 s.

P0222

The ECM detects that the TP sensor 2 voltage is less than 0.3 V for less than 1 s.

P0223

The ECM detects that the TP sensor 2 voltage is greater than 4.6 V for less than 1 s.

P2135

The ECM detects that TP sensor 1 and TP sensor 2 disagree greater than 7-10 percent for less than 1 s.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

P0121

* DTC P0121 is a type B DTC

* The ECM commands the throttle actuator control (TAC) system to operate in a Reduced Engine Power mode.

P0122, P0123, P0222, P0223, or P2135

* DTC P0122, P0123, P0222, P0223, and P2135 are type A DTCs

* The ECM commands the throttle actuator control (TAC) system to operate in a Reduced Engine Power mode.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* DTC P0121 is a type B DTC.

* DTCs P0122, P0123, P0222, P0223 and P2135 is a type A DTC.
