DESCRIPTION

The accelerator pedal position sensor is mounted on the accelerator pedal and detects the opening angle of the accelerator pedal. Since this sensor is electronically controlled with Hall-effect elements, accurate control and reliability can be obtained. The accelerator pedal position sensor has 2 sensors to detect the accelerator position and malfunctions of the accelerator position sensor.

In the accelerator pedal position sensor, the voltage applied to pedal terminals VPA and VPA2 of the ECM changes between 0.5 V and 5.5 V in proportion to the opening angle of the accelerator pedal. The VPA is a signal which indicates the actual accelerator pedal opening angle and is used for engine control, and the VPA2 is a signal which indicates the information about the opening angle and is used for detecting malfunctions. The ECM judges the current opening angle of the accelerator pedal using signals from terminals VPA and VPA2, and the ECM controls the injection volume based on these signals.

Tip:

  • When DTC P2122, P2123, P2127 and/or P2128 are stored, as a fail-safe operation the ECM limits engine power, such as by estimating the accelerator pedal position as 0 %.

  • When DTC P2122, P2123, P2127 and/or P2128 are stored, check the accelerator pedal position sensor output by entering the following menus on the GTS: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Accel Position.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note:

When replacing the ECM, perform ECM Initialization and Registration.

Tip:

  • When the ECM must be replaced, before replacing the ECM, perform the "Learning Values Save" function using the GTS. Then after installing a new ECM, perform all of the initialization and registration procedures for the "Learning Values Write" function by following the instructions shown on the GTS display.

  • Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE

  1. READ VALUE USING GTS (ACCEL SENSOR OUT NO.1 AND NO.2)

    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Accel Sensor Out No.1 and Accel Sensor Out No.2.

      Powertrain > Engine and ECT > Data List
      Tester Display
      Accel Sensor Out No.1
      Accel Sensor Out No.2

    4. Read the value when fully depressing and fully releasing the accelerator pedal.

      Standard Voltage
      GTS Display Condition Specified Condition
      Accel Sensor Out No.1 Fully depressed 2.6 to 4.5 V
      Fully released 0.5 to 1.1 V
