DTC 122- TPS1 Signal Voltage Low
• Throttle Position Sensor 1.
• Check Condition-Key On, Engine Off.
• Fault Condition-TPS1 sensor voltage lower than the limit
defined in the diagnostic calibration.
• Corrective Action(s): Sound audible warning or illuminate
secondary warning lamp, shutdown engine.
• Non-emissions related fault.
In the case of a diesel engine, an actuator controls a fuel injec-
tion pump, directly affecting the fueling level into the cylin-
ders. This may be by direct manipulation of the fuel injection
pump rack or by manipulation of the mechanical governor
control level or “throttle arm.”
In the DGC ECM and EDIS, references to the throttle and throt-
tle position sensor refer to these fuel injection pump control
actuators and their position feedback sensors. When the fuel
injection pump is electronically controlled it can be used to
control the idle stability and limit engine speed based on
operating conditions.
The Throttle Position Sensor uses either;
1) a variable resistor and voltage divider circuit
or
2) a non-contact hall-effect sensor to determine throttle actu-
ator position, and is located within the throttle actuator.
There are two types of throttle actuators;
1) actuator with analog position feedback
and
2) actuator with digital position feedback.
The first type, with analog position feedback, provides an ana-
log return signal between 0 and 5 volts that is proportional to
the throttle actuator position. The second type, with digital
position feedback, provides a serial data signal to the ECM
with the throttle actuator position voltage level encoded in
the data stream.
This fault sets if TPS1 voltage is lower than the low voltage
limit as defined in the diagnostic calibration at any operating
condition while the engine is cranking or running. The limit is
generally set to 4.90 VDC. In many cases, this condition is
caused by the TPS sensor being disconnected from the engine
harness, an open-circuit or short-to-ground of the TPS circuit
in the wire harness, or a failure of the sensor. This fault should
be configured to trigger an engine shutdown and the engine
will not start with this fault active.
