Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch 'C' Circuit High

Powertrain

No conducir — requiere atención inmediata

Descripción

This code means the 'C' circuit of the throttle or accelerator pedal position sensor is sending a signal that is too high. This suggests the sensor is reporting more pedal input than is actually being applied, or there's an electrical problem causing an over-voltage signal.

Causas comunes

  • Faulty accelerator pedal position sensor
  • Wiring issue (short to voltage)
  • Faulty throttle position sensor
  • Loose electrical connection
  • Throttle body issues

Síntomas

  • Check Engine light is on
  • Engine may run at high idle
  • Unintended acceleration
  • Poor fuel economy
  • Stalling
