P2116-ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR 2 MINIMUM STOP PERFORMANCE
P2116-ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR 2 MINIMUM STOP PERFORMANCE
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.
Thoery of operation
The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system uses two Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) sensors to monitor the accelerator pedal position. The APP sensors 1 and 2 are located within the pedal assembly. Each sensor has a 5-volt reference circuit, a low reference circuit, and a signal circuit. Processors are also used to monitor the ETC system data. The processors are located within the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Each signal circuit provides processors with a signal voltage proportional to pedal movement. The processors share and monitor data to verify that the indicated APP calculation is correct.
-
When Monitored:
With the igniting on. During in-plant testing, the APPS is checked to make sure the minimum and maximum values can be reached. The PCM performs the diagnostic test for this DTC after the diagnostic test for P2167 has passed.
-
Set Condition:
APPS 2 has failed to achieve the required minimum value during In-Plant testing. One trip fault and the code will be stored within 5 seconds. Engine will only idle.
POSSIBLE CAUSES |

| ETC RELEARN |
| ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR |
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure).
| 1. | Turn the ignition on. |
| NOTE: | This DTC is set when the APPS values are learned in-plant but do not reach the minimum or maximum voltage range. |
| NOTE: | Diagnose any APPS out of range and 5 volt supply DTCs before continuing. |
| 2. | With the scan tool, clear DTCs. |
| 3. | Start the engine. |
| 4. | With the scan tool, select View DTCs. |
Is the status Active for this DTC?
Yes
- Go to 2
No
- Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure).
2. ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR
| 1. | With a scan tool perform the ETC RELEARN function. |
| 2. | With the scan tool, clear DTCs. |
| 3. | Start the engine. |
| 4. | With the scan tool, select View DTCs. |
Is the status Active for this DTC?
Yes
- Replace the Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor in accordance with the Service Information. After installation is complete, perform the ETC RELEARN function.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure).
