DTC P0222 Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) 
Sensor 2 Circuit Low Voltage

Circuit Description

The Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) module provides a volt-
age signal that changes relative to accelerator position. There
are three sensors located within the APP module that are scaled
differently. This is a type C DTC.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

• Voltage is less than .25 volts on APP 2 sensor.

• Conditions met for 2 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• The input from APP 2 sensor is ignored.

• A current and history DTC will set but it will not turn on 

the “Service Throttle Soon” lamp.

• The throttle will operate normally as long as there is 

only one sensor malfunction present. If two different 
APP sensors have a malfunction, the “Service Throttle 
Soon” lamp will light and the PCM will limit power. If 
three APP sensors have a malfunction present, the “Ser-
vice Throttle Soon” lamp will light and the PCM will 
only allow the engine to operate at idle.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

• A History DTC will clear when forty consecutive 

warm-up cycles that the diagnostic does not fail (coolant 
temperature has risen 5°C (40°F) from start up coolant 
temperature and engine coolant temperature exceeds 
71°C (160°F) that same ignition cycle).

• Use of a Scan Tool

Diagnostic Aids

A scan tool reads APP 2 position in volts and should read about
4.5 volts with throttle closed and ignition “ON” or at idle. Volt-
age should decrease at a steady rate as throttle is moved toward
Wide Open Throttle (WOT). An open or short to ground in
CKT 996 or 993 will result in a P0222. Refer to Section 2 for
“Intermittents”. Scan APP 2 sensor while depressing accelera-
tor pedal with engine stopped and ignition “ON”, Display
should vary from about 4.5 volts when throttle was closed to
about 1.5 volts when throttle is held at Wide Open Throttle
(WOT) position.

Test Description

Number(s) below refer to the circled number(s) on the diagnos-
tic table.

2. This step determines if P0222 is the result of a hard failure or

an intermittent condition.

3. This step checks the PCM and wiring.

DTC P0223 Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) 
Sensor 2 Circuit High Voltage

Circuit Description

The Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) module provides a volt-
age signal that changes relative to accelerator position. There
are three sensors located within the APP module that are scaled
differently. This is a type C DTC.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

• Voltage is greater than 4.75 volts on APP 2.

• Conditions met for 2 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• The input from APP 2 sensor is ignored.

• A current and history DTC will set but it will not turn on 

the “Service Throttle Soon” lamp. The throttle will op-
erate normally as long as there is only one malfunction 
present. If two different APP sensors have a malfunc-
tion, the “Service Throttle Soon” lamp will light and the 
PCM will limit power. If three APP sensors have a mal-
function present, the “Service Throttle Soon” lamp will 
light and the PCM will only allow the engine to operate 
at idle.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

• A History DTC will clear when forty consecutive 

warm-up cycles that the diagnostic does not fail (coolant 
temperature has risen 5°C (40°F) from start up coolant 

temperature and engine coolant temperature exceeds 
71°C (160°F) that same ignition cycle).

• Ignition must be cycled if P1125 is also set.

• Use of a Scan Tool

Diagnostic Aids

A scan tool reads APP 2 position in volts and should read about
4.5 volts with throttle closed and ignition “ON” or at idle. Volt-
age should decrease at a steady rate as throttle is moved toward
Wide Open Throttle (WOT). Also, 90% pedal travel is accept-
able for correct APP operation. Refer to Section 2 for “Inter-
mittents”. Scan APP 2 signal while depressing accelerator
pedal with engine stopped and ignition “ON”. Display should
vary from about 4.5 volts when throttle is closed to about 1.5
volts when throttle is held at Wide Open Throttle (WOT) posi-
tion. Its possible P1125 will set along with P0223 if the signal
circuit is open.

Test Description

Number(s) below refer to the number(s) on the diagnostic ta-
ble.

2. This step determines if P0223 is a hard failure or an intermit-

tent condition.

3. This step will check for an open in the ground circuit.
