id0102j5708800

DTC P2138:00

APP sensor No.1/No.2 correlation problem

DETECTION CONDITION
•  With the following conditions met, the output voltages of APP sensors No.1 and No.2 are compared, and the difference in the voltages is 0.7 V or more for a continuous 1 s.
―  Battery positive voltage: 8—16 V
―  Ignition is switched ON (engine off or on)
―  The following DTCs are not detected
•  APP sensor No.1: P2122:00, P2123:00
•  APP sensor No.2: P2127:00, P2128:00
•  Constant voltage power supply control system: P0642:00, P0643:00, P0652:00, P0653:00
Diagnostic support note
•  This is a continuous monitor (CCM).
•  The check engine light illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle.
•  FREEZE FRAME DATA/Snapshot data is available.
•  DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION
•  Restricts the upper limit of the APP sensor output.
•  Inhibits the automatic diesel particulate filter regeneration control.
•  Inhibits the EGR control.
•  Inhibits engine-stop by i-stop control.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  APP sensor connector or terminal malfunction
•  PCM connector or terminal malfunction
•  Short circuit in signal circuit of APP sensor No.1 and signal circuit of APP sensor No.2
•  APP sensor No.1 malfunction
•  APP sensor No.2 malfunction
•  PCM malfunction


Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Results

Action

1
RECORD VEHICLE STATUS WHEN DTC WAS DETECTED TO UTILIZE WITH REPEATABILITY VERIFICATION
Note
•  Recording can be facilitated using the screen capture function of the PC.
•  Record the freeze frame data/snap shot data.
Go to the next step.
2
INSPECT APP SENSOR CONNECTOR CONDITION
•  Switch the ignition OFF.
•  Disconnect the APP sensor connector
•  Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition, and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
•  Is the connector normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 7.
3
INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR CONDITION
•  Disconnect the PCM connector.
•  Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition, and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
•  Is the connector normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 7.
4
INSPECT APP SENSOR NO.1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT AND APP SENSOR NO.2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT CIRCUIT
•  Verify that the APP sensor connector and the PCM connector are disconnected.
•  Inspect for continuity between APP sensor terminals B and E (vehicle wiring harness side).
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify if there is a common connector between the following terminals.
•  APP sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 2AN
•  APP sensor terminal E and PCM terminal 2AS
If there is a common connector:
•  Inspect the common connector and terminals for corrosion, damage, or disconnection and the common wiring harnesses for short circuit to determine the malfunctioning location.
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning location.
If there is no common connector:
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning wiring harness.
Go to Step 7.
No
Go to the next step.
5
INSPECT APP SENSOR NO.1
•  Reconnect all the disconnected connectors.
•  Is APP sensor No.1 normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the accelerator pedal, then go to Step 7.
6
INSPECT APP SENSOR NO.2
•  Is APP sensor No.2 normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the accelerator pedal, then go to the next step.
7
VERIFY THAT REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED
•  Reconnect all the disconnected connectors.
•  Refer to the [MEMORY CLEARING PROCEDURE] and clear the DTC.
•  Perform the KOEO or KOER self-test.
•  Has DTC P2138:00 been recorded?
Yes
Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
8
VERIFY OTHER DTCs
•  Has any other DTC or pending code been stored?
Yes
Repair the malfunctioning location according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.
No
DTC troubleshooting completed.
