DTC P1124:00 [MZI-3.7]

id0102d2316600

DTC P1124:00 | Throttle position sensor A out of self-test range
--- | ---
DETECTION CONDITION | • During the KOEO/KOER self-test, the PCM monitors the TP sensor output voltage to determine if the TP1 and TP2 signals are less than the expected value. If either TP1 or TP2 is greater than the expected value, the DTC is stored.
POSSIBLE CAUSE | • Accelerator pedal applied during KOEO/KOER self-test

No | Replace the throttle body, then go to Step 17. (See INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZI-3.7].)
7 | INSPECT TP SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY • Throttle body connector is disconnected. • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (engine off). • Measure the voltage between the following circuits: ― Throttle body terminal F (wiring harness-side) and body ground. ― Throttle body terminal C (wiring harness-side) and body ground. • Are there voltage B+? | Yes | Repair or replace suspected part, then go to Step 17.
No | Go to the next step.
8 | INSPECT TP SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT • Throttle body connector is disconnected. • Turn the ignition switch off. • Disconnect the PCM connector. • Inspect for continuity between the following circuits (wiring harness-side): ― Throttle body terminal F and PCM terminal 2AN ― Throttle body terminal C and PCM terminal 2AL • Is there continuity? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Repair or replace suspected part, then go to Step 17.
9 | INSPECT TP SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND • Throttle body and PCM connectors are disconnected. • Turn the ignition switch off. • Inspect for continuity between the following circuits: ― Throttle body terminal F (wiring harness-side) and body ground ― Throttle body terminal C (wiring harness-side) and body ground • Is there continuity? | Yes | Repair or replace suspected part, then go to Step 17.
No | Go to the next step.
10 | INSPECT TP SENSOR CIRCUITS FOR SHORT EACH OTHER • Throttle body and PCM connectors are disconnected. • Turn the ignition switch off. • Measure the resistance between the following circuits (wiring harness-side): ― Throttle body terminal F and C ― Throttle body terminal F and D ― Throttle body terminal F and E ― Throttle body terminal C and D ― Throttle body terminal C and E • Is the resistance more than 10 kilohms? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Repair or replace suspected part, then go to Step 17.
11 | INSPECT FOR TP2 SIGNAL HIGH VERSUS LOAD WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine running). • Access the TP2 and LOAD PIDs using the M-MDS. • Is the TP2 PID more than 2.44 V and the LOAD PID less than 30%? | Yes | INSPECT THE INTAKE AIR SYSTEM FOR LEAKS, OBSTRUCTIONS, AND DAMAGE Inspect for broken/loose air outlet tube clamps (throttle body and air cleaner assembly ends), cracks/holes in the air outlet tube, and worn gaskets between the MAF sensor and the air cleaner component. Inspect for throttle body bore for sludge. Inspect the MAF sensor. • Repair or replace the suspected part, then go to Step 17.
No | Go to the next step.
12 | INSPECT FOR TP2 SIGNAL LOW VERSUS LOAD WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine running). • Access the PCM and monitor the TP2 and LOAD PIDs • Is the TP2 PID less than 0.24 V and the LOAD PID more than 55%? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Go to Step 14.
13 | INSPECT FOR SELF-TEST DTCS • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine running). • Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS. • Drive the vehicle while exercising the throttle. • Retrieve the continuous memory DTCs. • Is the PENDING CODE for this DTC present? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Perform the “INTERMITTENT CONCERN TROUBLESHOOTING”. Then go to Step 17.
