DTC P0222 [L8, LF]

id0102b1806000

DTC P0222

TP sensor No.2 circuit low input

DETECTION CONDITION

•  If the PCM detects TP sensor No.2 voltage is to be below 0.1 V after turn the ignition switch to the ON position, the PCM determines that TP sensor No.2 circuit has a malfunction.

Diagnostic support note

•  This is a continuous monitor (CCM).

•  The MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition in the first drive cycle.

•  FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2/Mode 12) is available.

•  The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

•  Throttle body connector or terminals malfunction

•  Short to ground in wiring harness between the following terminals:

―  Throttle body terminal E and PCM terminal 2AO

―  Throttle body terminal D and PCM terminal 2AL

•  PCM connector or terminals malfunction

•  TP sensor No.2 malfunction

•  TP sensor No.2 signal circuit and ground circuit are shorted to each other

•  Open circuit in wiring harness between the following terminals:

―  Throttle body terminal E and PCM terminal 2AO

―  Throttle body terminal D and PCM terminal 2AL

•  PCM malfunction

DTC P0222	TP sensor No.2 circuit low input
DETECTION CONDITION	• If the PCM detects TP sensor No.2 voltage is to be below 0.1 V after turn the ignition switch to the ON position, the PCM determines that TP sensor No.2 circuit has a malfunction. Diagnostic support note • This is a continuous monitor (CCM). • The MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition in the first drive cycle. • FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2/Mode 12) is available. • The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.

Diagnostic procedure

STEP	INSPECTION		ACTION
1	VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA (MODE 12) HAS BEEN RECORDED • Has the FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 12) been recorded?	Yes	Go to the next step.
1		No	Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 12) on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2	VERIFY RELATED SERVICE INFORMATION AVAILABILITY • Verify related Service Information availability. • Is any related Service Information available?	Yes	Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available Service Information. • If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
2		No	Go to the next step.
3	INSPECT THROTTLE BODY CONNECTOR AND TERMINALS • Turn the ignition switch off. • Disconnect the throttle body connector. • Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, and corrosion). • Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the connector or terminals, then go to Step 9.
3		No	Go to the next step.
4	VERIFY TP SENSOR NO.2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND • Throttle body connector is disconnected. • Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground: ― Throttle body terminal E ― Throttle body terminal D • Is there continuity?	Yes	If the short to ground circuit could be detected: • Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground. If the short to ground circuit could not be detected: • Replace the PCM (short to ground in PCM internal circuit). (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L8, LF].) Go to Step 9.
4		No	Go to the next step.
5	INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR AND TERMINALS • Disconnect the PCM connector. • Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, and corrosion). • Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the connector or terminals, then go to Step 9.
5		No	Go to the next step.
6	CLASSIFY TP SENSOR NO.2 OR WIRING HARNESS MALFUNCTION • Reconnect the PCM connector. • Connect the M-MDS. • Perform the PID/DATA Monitor and Record Procedure and access the TP2 PID. (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST [L8, LF].) • Connect a jumper wire between throttle body terminals E and D (wiring harness-side). • Is the voltage above 4.9 V?	Yes	Go to the next step.
6		No	Replace the throttle body, then go to Step 9. (See INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L8, LF].)
7	VERIFY TP SENSOR NO.2 SIGNAL AND GROUND CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO EACH OTHER • Throttle body connector is disconnected. • Disconnect the PCM connector. • Turn the ignition switch off. • Inspect for continuity between throttle body terminal D and C (wiring harness-side). • Is there continuity?	Yes	Repair or replace the suspected wiring harness, then go to Step 9.
7		No	Go to the next step.
8	VERIFY TP SENSOR NO.2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT • Throttle body and PCM connectors are disconnected. • Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side): ― Throttle body terminal E and PCM terminal 2AO ― Throttle body terminal D and PCM terminal 2AK • Is there continuity?	Yes	Go to the next step.
8		No	Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit, then go to the next step.
9	VERIFY DTC TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED • Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors. • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (engine off). • Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS. (See AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE [L8, LF].) • Start the engine and warm it up completely. • Perform the KOEO/KOER self test. (See KOEO/KOER SELF TEST [L8, LF].) • Is the same DTC present?	Yes	Replace the PCM, then go to the next step. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L8, LF].)
9		No	Go to the next step.
10	VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE • Perform the “AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE”. (See AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE [L8, LF].) • Are any DTCs present?	Yes	Go to the applicable DTC troubleshooting. (See DTC TABLE [L8, LF].)
10		No	DTC troubleshooting completed.
