• The accelerator pedal position sensor (sub) out-

puts voltage which corresponds to the accelera-
tor pedal depression.

• The ECM checks whether the voltage is within a

specified range.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

Accelerator pedal position sensor (sub) output volt-

age is out of specified range.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

Continuous

.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 12:
Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (sub).

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item

12, Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (sub).

• Output voltage is between 0.4 and 0.6 volt when foot is

released from accelerator pedal.

• Output voltage is 2.0 volts or higher when accelerator

pedal is fully depressed.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-15

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check harness connector C-123 at accelerator
pedal position sensor for damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 8.

STEP 3. Check the continuity at accelerator pedal position
sensor harness side connector C-123.
(1) Disconnect the connector C-123 and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Measure the continuity between terminal No. 5 and ground.

• Continuity (2 ohms or less)

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check harness connector B-11 at ECM for
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 8.

STEP 5. Check for open circuit and harness damage
between accelerator pedal position sensor connector
C-123 (terminal No. 5) and ECM connector B-11 (terminal
No. 79).
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Repair it. Then go to Step 8.

STEP 6. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 12:
Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (sub).
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item

12, Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (sub).

• Output voltage is between 0.4 and 0.6 volt when foot is

released from accelerator pedal.

• Output voltage is 2.0 volts or higher when accelerator

pedal is fully depressed.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

STEP 7. Replace the accelerator pedal position sensor.
(1) Replace the accelerator pedal position sensor.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) After the DTC has been deleted, read the DTC again.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P2128 set?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced,

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, Diagnosis

. Then go to Step 8.

NO : The inspection is complete.

STEP 8. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) After the DTC has been deleted, read the DTC again.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P2128 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO : The inspection is complete.
