The ECM detects a circuit low fault on the throttle valve intake air pressure sensor circuit. Reading cannot be used reliably for control.
Affected components
- Throttle valve intake air pressure sensor
- Wiring harness
- Ecm
Common causes
- High likelihood: Signal wire shorted to ground
- Medium likelihood: Internal sensor short
- Low likelihood: Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
Diagnostic notes
