DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
Detect malfunction if the relation between accelerator
pedal position sensor (main) and accelerator pedal position sensor (sub) is wrong.
MONITOR EXECUTION
MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS (Other monitor and Sensor)
Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC stored in memory
for the item monitored below)
Sensor (The sensor below is determined to be normal)
DTC SET CONDITIONS <Range/Performance problem -relation
between main and sub>
Logic Flow Chart
Check Conditions
- Change of accelerator pedal position sensor (sub) output voltage per 25 milliseconds
is lower than 0.06 volt.
Judgement Criterion
- Voltage obtained with the formula given below is 0.4 volt or higher for 0.3 second: [accelerator pedal
position sensor (sub) voltage - accelerator pedal position sensor (main) voltage].
note |
The accelerator pedal position sensor voltage used for the judgement is converted into the
accelerator pedal position sensor voltage for the internal processing by the ECM.
