Throttle Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The throttle position sensor is mounted in the throttle body and
detects the throttle valve opening angle. When the throttle valve
is fully closed, a voltage of approx. 0.7 V is applied to terminal
VTA of the engine ECU. The voltage applied to the terminals
VTA of the engine ECU increases in proportion to the opening
angle of the throttle valve and becomes approx. 2.7 – 5.2 when
the throttle valve is fully opened. The engine ECU judges the
vehicle driving conditions from these signals input from termi-
nals VTA and uses them as one of the conditions for deciding
the air–fuel ratio correction, power increase correction and
fuel–cut control etc.
DTC No.

After confirming DTC P0120, use the hand–held tester to confirm the throttle valve opening percentage and
closed throttle position switch condition.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
S
If DTCs P0110, P0115 and P0120 are output simultaneously, E2 (sensor ground) may be open.
S
Read freeze frame data using hand–held tester. Because freeze frame records the engine conditions
when the malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting it is useful for determining whether the vehicle
was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air–fuel ratio was lean or rich, etc. at
the time of the malfunction.
When using hand–held tester:
1
Connect hand–held tester, read throttle valve opening percentage.
PREPARATION:
(a)
Connect the hand–held tester to the DLC3.
(b)
Turn the ignition switch ON and push the hand–held tes-
ter main switch ON.
CHECK:
Read the throttle valve opening percentage.
OK:

OK
Check for intermittent problems (See page
DI–3).
NG
2
Check voltage between terminal 1 of wire harness side connector and body
ground.
PREPARATION:
(a)
Remove the engine ECU with connector still connected
(See page FI–70).
(b)
Turn the ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Measure voltage between terminal 1 (VC) of wire harness side
connector and body ground.
OK:
Voltage: 4.5 – 5.5 V
NG
Go to step 5.
OK
3
Check throttle position sensor.
PREPARATION:
Disconnect the throttle position sensor connector.
CHECK:
Measure voltage between terminals 1, 3 and 2 of throttle posi-
tion sensor.

NG
Check and replace engine ECU (See page
IN–32).
OK
Check for open and short circuit in harness and connector between engine ECU and throttle posi-
tion sensor (VTA line) (See page IN–32).
5
Check voltage between terminals VC and E2 of engine ECU.
PREPARATION:
(a)
Remove the engine ECU with connector still connected
(See page FI–70).
(b)
Turn the ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Measure voltage between terminals VC and E2 of the engine
ECU connector.
OK:
Voltage: 4.5 – 5.5 V
NG
Check and replace engine ECU (See page
IN–32).
OK
Check for open in harness and connector be-
tween engine ECU and sensor (VC line) (See
page IN–32).
