THROTTLE POSITION (TP) SENSOR INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0]
2016 – MX-5 – Engine
THROTTLE POSITION (TP) SENSOR INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0]
Voltage Inspection
CAUTION:
-
The inspection cannot be performed with this method correctly if there is a malfunction of the APP sensor or throttle valve actuator. Verify that no DTCs related to the APP sensor or throttle valve actuator are stored before the inspection.
NOTE:
-
The TP sensor cannot be removed as a single unit. When replacing the TP sensor, replace it together with the throttle body as a single unit.
1. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC–2.
2. Switch the ignition ON (engine off).
3. Verify that the TP sensor output voltage (PID: TP1, TP2) varies according to the accelerator opening angle when the accelerator opening angle is gradually increased. (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST [PCM (SKYACTIV-G 2.0)].)
-
If verified, go to the next step.
-
If not as verified, replace the throttle body. (See INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0].)
4. Verify that the TP sensor output voltage (PID: TP1, TP2) is within the specification when the accelerator pedal is depressed and not depressed. (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST [PCM (SKYACTIV-G 2.0)].) (See PCM INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0].)
-
If not as specified, replace the throttle body. (See INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0].)
