DTC P1124: Throttle Position (TP) Sensor Out of Self-Test Range

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 32 other vehicles, including the 2005 Mercury Sable, 2005 Mercury Mountaineer, 2005 Mercury Monterey, 2005 Mercury Montego, and 2005 Mercury Mariner. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
P1124 - THROTTLE POSITION (TP) SENSOR OUT OF SELF-TEST RANGE

Description:  The TP sensor circuit is monitored by the powertrain control module (PCM) for an out of range TP rotation angle (or voltage) input. If during key on, engine off (KOEO) or key on, engine running (KOER) the TP rotation angle (or voltage) reading is less than 13.27% (0.66 volt) or greater than 23.52% (1.17 volts), the test fails.
Possible Causes: 
  • Binding or bent throttle linkage
  • TP sensor not seated properly
  • Throttle plate below closed throttle position
  • Throttle plate/screw misadjusted
  • Damaged TP sensor
  • Damaged PCM
Diagnostic Aids:  The TP PID (TP V PID) reading not between 13.27 and 23.52% (0.66 and 1.17 volts) in KOEO or KOER indicates a hard fault.
