Code No. P1225 Accelerator pedal position sensor (2nd
channel) system

Probable cause

Range of Check



Accelerator pedal position sensor (2nd channel) is normal.



Communication between the engine-ECU and the throttle valve controller is
normal.

Set Conditions



Output voltage of the accelerator pedal position sensor (2nd channel) is 0.2
V or less for one second

or



Output voltage of the accelerator pedal position sensor (1st channel) is 2.5
V or less, and output voltage of the accelerator pedal position sensor (2nd
channel) is 4.5 V or more for one second.

or



Difference between the accelerator pedal position sensor (1st and 2nd
channels) output voltages exceeds 1.0 V (i.e. when the throttle valve
opening angle changes slightly).



Malfunction of accelerator pedal position sensor
(2nd channel)



Open or short circuit in accelerator pedal position
sensor (2nd channel) circuit or loose connector
contact



Malfunction of the throttle valve controller



Malfunction of engine-ECU

Check the harness wire between
accelerator pedal position sensor
(2nd channel) and the throttle valve
controller.
