4-38 FI SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
“14” (P0120-H/L) TP SENSOR CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION
INSPECTION
Step 1 (When indicating 14:)
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Remove the front frame cover. (#8-8)
3) Check the TP sensor coupler
1 for loose or poor contacts.
If OK, then measure the TP sensor input voltage.
DETECTED CONDITION POSSIBLE CAUSE
14 Output voltage is not within the following
range.
Difference between actual throttle open-
ing and opening calculated by ECM is
larger than specified value.
0.2 V Sensor voltage < 4.8 V
• TP sensor maladjusted
• TP sensor circuit open or short
• TP sensor malfunction
• ECM malfunction
