Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. 5:  This step tests the signal and the 5-volt reference circuits.
  2. 12:  After replacing the PCM, a new minimum throttle position and idle speed must be established.
DTC P2122

Step Action Values Yes No
Connector End View Reference: Powertrain Control Module Connector End Views or Engine Controls Connector End Views
1 Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle? - Go to Step 2  Go to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle
2 Is DTC P0641 also set? - Go to DTC P0641  Go to Step 3 
3
  1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  2. Observe the APP Sensor 1 parameter with a scan tool.
Is the APP sensor 1 parameter less than the specified value?
0.15 V Go to Step 5  Go to Step 4 
4
  1. Observe the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data for this DTC.
  2. Turn OFF the ignition for 30 seconds.
  3. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.
Did the DTC fail this ignition?
- Go to Step 5  Go to Intermittent Conditions
  1. Connect a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the 5-volt reference circuit of the accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor 1 and the sensor signal circuit.
  2. Observe the APP sensor 1 parameter on the scan tool.
 Is the APP sensor 1 voltage within the specified range?
4.8-5.2 V Go to Step 9  Go to Step 6 
6 Connect a DMM between the 5-volt reference circuit of the APP sensor 1 and a good ground.
Is the measured voltage within the specified range?
4.8-5.2 V Go to Step 7  Go to Step 8 
7 Test the APP sensor 1 signal circuit for the following conditions:
  • An open
  • A short to ground

Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
