P0222 - THROTTLE POSITION (TP2) SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW INPUT

Description:  The ETC TP2 sensor was flagged as fault status by the PCM indicating a low voltage, or open circuit.
Possible Causes: 
  • Open ETC TP sensor harness.
  • Short to ground in the ETC TP sensor harness.
  • Damaged TP sensor.
  • SIG RTN circuit open to the TP sensor.
