Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

DTC P2125

Step Action Values Yes No
Schematic Reference: Engine Controls Schematics
Connector End View Reference: Engine Controls Connector End Views or Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Connector End Views
1 Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle? - Go to Step 2  Go to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle
2
  1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  2. Observe the accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor 2 voltage with the accelerator pedal in the rest position with a scan tool.
Does the scan tool indicate voltage less than the first value or greater than the second value?
0.13 V
4.87 V
Go to Step 4  Go to Step 3 
3
  1. Observe the Freeze Frame/Failure Records for this DTC.
  2. Turn OFF the ignition for 30 seconds.
  3. Start the engine.
  4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.
Does the DTC fail this ignition?
- Go to Step 4  Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections

  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Disconnect the accelerator pedal harness connector.
  3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  4. Observe the APP sensor 2 voltage parameter with a scan tool.
Does the scan tool indicate voltage within the specified range?
4.8-5.2 V Go to Step 5  Go to Step 13 
5 Probe the APP sensor 2 signal circuit with a test lamp connected to ground.
Does the test lamp illuminate?
- Go to Step 12  Go to Step 6 
6 Observe the APP sensor 2 parameter with the test lamp still connected to the APP sensor 2 signal circuit.
Does the scan tool indicate voltage at the specified value?
0 V Go to Step 7  Go to Step 11 
7 Measure the voltage of the APP sensor 2 5-volt reference circuit with a DMM.
Does the DMM indicate voltage within the specified range?
4.8-5.2 V Go to Step 8  Go to Step 10 
8 Measure the resistance of the low reference circuit of the APP sensor 2 with a DMM. Refer to Circuit Testing .
Is the resistance less than the specified value?
5 ohm Go to Step 9  Go to Step 14 
9 Test the APP sensor low reference circuit for a short to ground.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 18 
10 Does the DMM indicate voltage less than the specified value on the APP sensor 2 5-volt reference circuit? 5 V Go to Step 15  Go to Step 17 
11 Test the APP sensor 2 signal circuit for an open or high resistance. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 13 
12 Test the APP sensor 2 signal circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 20 
13 Test the APP sensor 2 signal circuit for a short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 20 
14 Test the APP sensor 2 low reference circuit for an open or high resistance. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 20 
15 Test the APP sensor 2 5-volt reference circuit for an open or high resistance. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 16 
16 Test the APP sensor 2 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 20 
17 Test the APP sensor 2 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  -
18 Inspect for poor connections at the accelerator pedal harness connector. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 19 
19 Replace the accelerator pedal assembly. Refer to Accelerator Pedal with Position Sensor Replacement .
Did you complete the replacement?
- Go to Step 22  -
20 Inspect for poor connections at the powertrain control module (PCM) harness connector. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 21 
21 Replace the PCM. Refer to Control Module References for replacement, setup, and programming.
Did you complete the replacement?
- Go to Step 22  -
22
  1. Clear the DTCs with a scan tool.
  2. Turn OFF the ignition for 30 seconds.
  3. Start the engine.
  4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.
Did the DTC fail this ignition?
- Go to Step 2  Go to Step 23 
23 Observe the Capture Info with a scan tool.
Are there any DTCs that have not been diagnosed?
