P0220
DTC P0220CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The throttle position (TP) sensors 1 and 2 are located within the throttle body assembly. Each sensor has the following circuits:
- A 5-volt reference circuit
- A low reference circuit
- A signal circuit
The TP sensor provides the engine control module (ECM) with a signal voltage proportional to the throttle plate movement. The TP sensor 1 signal voltage at closed throttle is near the 5-volt reference and decreases as the throttle plate is opened. The TP sensor 2 signal voltage at closed throttle is near the low reference and increases as the throttle plate is opened. When the TP sensor 2 signal voltage is not within the predicted range, this DTC will set.
CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
- The ignition switch is in the crank or run position.
- DTC P0641 is not set.
- The ignition voltage is more than 2.25 volts.
CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
The TP sensor 2 voltage is less than 0.27 volts or more than 4.67 volts.
ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
- The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
- The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The control module stores this information in the Freeze Frame and/or the Failure Records.
- The control module commands the TAC system to operate in the Reduced Engine Power mode.OR
- Under certain conditions the control module commands the engine OFF.
- The message center displays Reduced Engine Power.
CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
- The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
- A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
- A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.
- Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.
