P1125 - THROTTLE POSITION (TP) SENSOR INTERMITTENT
| Description: | The TP sensor circuit is monitored by the PCM for sudden TP rotation angle (or voltage) input change through the comprehensive component monitor (CCM). If during the last 80 warm-up cycles in key ON, engine running the PCM detects TP rotation angle (or voltage) changes beyond the minimum or maximum calibrated limit, a continuous diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored. | ||
| Possible Causes: |
|
||
| Diagnostic Aids: | While accessing the TP V PID on the diagnostic tool, lightly tap on the TP sensor or wiggle the TP sensor connector and harness. If the TP V PID suddenly changes below 0.49 volt or above 4.65 volts, an intermittent fault is indicated. | ||
