Primary Code

P0123: Throttle Position Sensor Circuit High Input

Generic Definition:

Code P0123 indicates that the Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor ‘A’ electrical circuit input signal had high voltage for a predetermined period of time.

Areas to Inspect – Possible Causes:

TP sensor signal circuit is shorted to VREF

TP sensor signal circuit is shorted to system power

TP sensor ground circuit is open between sensor and the PCM

TP sensor is damaged or has failed

PCM has failed
Condition For Setting The Code:

Engine running in closed loop conditions, and the PCM detected the wide-open-throttle TP signal was more than 4.60v (more than 90%).
