Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Throttle Position (TP) sensors No. 1 and No. 2 are located within the throttle body assembly. Each sensor has a 5-volt reference circuit, a low reference circuit and a signal circuit.

The TP sensor provides the Engine Control Module (ECM) with a signal voltage proportional to the throttle plate movement. The TP sensor 1 signal voltage at closed throttle is near the 5-volt reference and decreases as the throttle plate is opened. The TP sensor 2 signal voltage at closed throttle is near the low reference and increases as the throttle plate is opened. When the TP sensor 2 signal voltage is not within the predicted range, this DTC will set.
