P022015 | Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch "B" Circuit Short to Battery or Open |
The output voltage of VTA2 is higher than 4.75 V for 2 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic). |
| Comes on |

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses the throttle position sensor to monitor the throttle valve opening angle. If the VTA2 terminal voltage is higher than the threshold, the ECM will illuminate the MIL and store this DTC.

FAIL-SAFE
When this DTC is stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. During fail-safe mode, the ECM cuts the current to the throttle actuator, and the throttle valve is returned to a 7.5° throttle valve opening angle by the return spring. The ECM then adjusts the engine output by controlling the fuel injection (intermittent fuel-cut) and ignition timing, in accordance with the accelerator pedal angle, to allow the vehicle to continue running at a minimal speed. If the accelerator pedal is depressed firmly and gently, the vehicle can be driven slowly.
Fail-safe mode continues until a pass condition is detected, and the ignition switch is turned off.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
HINT:
Read Freeze Frame Data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE
1. |
CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR - ECM) |
(a) Disconnect the throttle body with motor assembly connector.
(b) Disconnect the ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition |
Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
C19-3 (VTA2) - C76-87 (VTA2) |
Always | Below 1 Ω |
C19-2 (VC) or C76-109 (VCTA) - Other terminals |
Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
C19-3 (VTA2) or C76-87 (VTA2) - Other terminals |
Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
NG | ![]() | REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR |

CHECK TERMINAL VOLTAGE (POWER SOURCE OF THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR) |
*a | Front view of wire harness connector (to Throttle Body with Motor Assembly) |
(a) Disconnect the throttle body with motor assembly connector.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage:
Tester Connection | Condition |
Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
C19-2 (VC) - C19-4 (E2) |
Ignition switch ON | 4.5 to 5.5 V |
C19-3 (VTA2) - C19-4 (E2) |
Ignition switch ON | 3.0 to 5.0 V |
NG | ![]() | REPLACE ECM

3. |
CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (RESISTANCE OF ECM) |
(a) Disconnect the throttle body with motor assembly connector.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition |
Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
C19-2 (VC) - C19-3 (VTA2) |
Ignition switch off | 190 to 210 kΩ |
NG | ![]() | REPLACE ECM

READ VALUE USING GTS (THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR NO.2 VOLTAGE) |
*a | Front view of wire harness connector (to Throttle Body with Motor Assembly) |
(a) Disconnect the throttle body with motor assembly connector.
(b) Enter the following menus.
Powertrain > Engine > Data List
Tester Display |
---|
Throttle Position Sensor No.2 Voltage |
(c) According to the display on the GTS, read the Data List.
HINT:
Use the snapshot function to record the value displayed or make a note of it.
(d) Turn the ignition switch off.
(e) Connect terminals 3 (VTA2) and 4 (E2) of the throttle body with motor assembly connector on the wire harness side.
NOTICE:
If the VTA2 terminal voltage or the resistance between VTA2 and E2 is abnormal and terminals 3 (VTA2) and 4 (E2) of the throttle body with motor assembly connector are connected, excessive current may flow through the circuit. In this case, do not connect the terminals.
(f) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(g) Enter the following menus.
