Diagnostic Test

  1. 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.

    1. Ignition on, engine not running.
    2. With the scan tool, read the active DTCs.

      Is the DTC Active at this time?

      Yes 

      • Go To  2

      No 

      • Go To  7
  2. THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the Throttle Body Assembly harness connector.
    3. Ignition on, engine not running.
    4. With the scan tool monitor the TP Sensor No. 2 voltage.

      Is the voltage below 0.5 Volt?

      Yes 

      • Verify that there is good pin to terminal contact in the Throttle Body and Powertrain Control Module connectors. If OK, replace the Throttle Body Assembly. Disconnect the Battery when replacing the Throttle Body Assembly. After installation is complete, using a scan tool select the ETC RELEARN function. Refer to THROTTLE BODY, REMOVAL .
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  3

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the PCM C2 harness connector.
    3. Ignition on, engine not running.
    4. Measure the voltage on the (K122) TP Sensor No. 2 Signal circuit at the Throttle Body harness connector.

      Is there any voltage present?

      Yes 

      • Repair the short to voltage in the (K122) TP Sensor No. 2 Signal circuit.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  4
  4. (K122) TP SENSOR NO. 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (F855) 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT 
    Fig 2: Checking TP Sensor No. 2 Signal Circuit For Short To 5-Volt Supply Circuit

    1. Measure the resistance between the (K122) TP Sensor No. 2 Signal circuit and the (F855) 5-volt Supply circuit at the Throttle Body harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 100 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Repair the short between the (K122) TP Sensor No. 2 Signal circuit and the (F855) 5-volt Supply circuit.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  5
  5. (K922) TP SENSOR RETURN CIRCUIT OPEN 
    Fig 3: Checking TP Sensor Return Circuit For Open
    GC0150107Courtesy of CHRYSLER GROUP, LLC
    1. Measure the resistance of the (K922) TP Sensor Return 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 

  6. POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) 
    1. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Throttle Body and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
    2. Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched or partially broken wires.
    3. Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals. Verify that there is good pin to terminal contact in the Throttle Body and Powertrain Control Module harness connectors.
    4. Perform any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.

      Were there any problems found?

      Yes 

      No 

  7. THROTTLE FOLLOWER TEST 
    1. Using the scan tool, perform the ETC Throttle Follower Test.
    2. Monitor the TP Sensor No. 2 voltage while slowly pressing the Throttle pedal down.

      Is there a smooth voltage change from approximately 4.3 volts and decrease to approximately 0.7 volt?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Verify that there is good pin to terminal contact in the Throttle Body and Powertrain Control Module connectors. If OK, replace the Throttle Body Assembly. Disconnect the Battery when replacing the Throttle Body Assembly. After installation is complete, using a scan tool select the ETC RELEARN function. Refer to THROTTLE BODY, REMOVAL .
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
