Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

ACTIVE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)
NOTE:
When this DTC is Active the engine speed, torque and vehicle speed are limited to a Limp in mode.

NOTE:
If a 5 Volt supply DTC has also set, diagnose the 5 Volt DTC before continuing.

NOTE:
Make sure the throttle moves freely and does not hang up at Wide Open Throttle, by performing the Throttle Follower Test

NOTE:
If P2101 is also set, then make sure that the blade moves freely and does not hang up near Wide Open Throttle before trying to repair P0222.
1. Ignition on, engine not running.
2. Using the scan tool, read the active DTCs.
  Is the DTC Active at this time?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 2.
  No
  - Go To 11.
P0122 ALSO SET
Was the P0122-TP SENSOR NO. 1 VOLTAGE LOW DTC set along with the P0222?

Yes
- Go To 3.
No
- Go To 4.

  Yes
  - Verify that there is good pin to terminal contact in the Throttle Body and Powertrain Control Module connectors. If OK, disconnect the Battery when replacing the Throttle Body Assembly. Replace the Throttle Body Assembly. Refer to THROTTLE BODY, REMOVAL . After installation is complete, with a scan tool select the ETC RELEARN function.
  - Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE and perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION.
  No
  - Go To 5.
    NOTE:
    Remove the jumper wire before continuing.
(K122) TP SENSOR NO. 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN

1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the C2 PCM harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the (K122) TP Sensor No. 2 Signal circuit from the Throttle Body harness connector to the PCM C2 harness connector.
  Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 6.
  No
  - Repair the open in the (K122) TP Sensor No. 2 Signal circuit.
  - Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE and perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION.
(K122) TP SENSOR NO. 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND
