Number 1 is limp mode (reduced power). Very dangerous running on a big highway, and bloody annoying. This can be countered by turning the engine off and restarting. Simple if you have a manual shift. It can be done while in motion. ( Push clutch down, turn off engine, turn key back to run position, re-engage clutch which re-starts the engine, takes 7 seconds.) If you have an automatic, you have to stop because it has to be put into into park. The worst circumstance is an intermittent problem. Hard to diagnose because the car is fine most of the time and the problem can only be identified to specific cause when it is present. You may get a P1271. P1275, P1280 fault code... but the problem may be in the wiring rather than the APP sensor or in the throttle position sensor. Sometimes it takes an oscilliscope to locate and most places dont have this capability.
2006 cadillac cis 3.6L car has both manual and automatic options>> when driving more than 60mph+ (limp mode) until first shifting to Neutral /decrease speed , then recrank ** Car parked due /non use-- went to drive vehicle; attempted to operate/drive car as it previously had been -60mph . during same operation= limp mode and nolonger sensed acceleration..

Would the symptoms be the same in a manual? I feel like my car is sluggish and when accelerating at times its jerks a bit, abs and vsa lights are on but cruise control works so i assume they're not on because of the speed sensors...
If your car is exhibiting symptoms of sluggishness and jerking during acceleration, along with the ABS and VSA lights being illuminated, it could indicate potential issues with the vehicle's drivetrain or electronic systems. While these symptoms can occur in both manual and automatic transmissions, the specific causes might differ slightly.

The P1604 code typically indicates an issue related to the engine control module (ECM) or engine control unit (ECU). If your car is showing this code, you should check your ECM
@@tiktok071 Your car is not moving as fast as you expect because it is in limp mode. Limp mode is a safety feature in modern vehicles designed to protect the engine or transmission when a fault or serious issue is detected. When the car's onboard computer (ECU) detects a problem that could cause significant damage to critical components, it limits the vehicle's performance to prevent further harm. First you have to fix limp mode to drive your car at high speed
I have a 2005 Chevy trailblazer 4.2. Replaced foot pedal sensor ladt yr. Just put 3rd throttle body on last week. Did all resets. Still going into limp mode. What else could be wrong?
If your 2005 Chevy Trailblazer 4.2 is still going into limp mode even after replacing the foot pedal sensor and the throttle body, there could be a few other potential issues to consider: 1)Wiring Harness: Faulty wiring or connectors in the throttle position sensor circuit could be causing intermittent signals or incorrect readings. Check the wiring harness for any signs of damage or corrosion. 2) Engine Control Module (ECM): The ECM, also known as the engine control module or engine control unit (ECU), could be malfunctioning, causing it to misinterpret signals from the throttle position sensor or other sensors. A diagnostic scan tool can help identify any ECM-related issues. 3) Other Sensors: Issues with other sensors such as the mass airflow sensor (MAF), manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor, or oxygen sensors could potentially cause the vehicle to go into limp mode. These sensors provide crucial data to the ECM for proper engine operation. 4) Vacuum Leaks: Vacuum leaks in the intake system can also cause erratic engine behavior and trigger limp mode. Check for any cracked or disconnected vacuum hoses. 5) Throttle Position Sensor Calibration: Ensure that the throttle position sensor (TPS) has been properly calibrated after installation. Improper calibration can lead to incorrect throttle responses. 6) Mechanical Issues: There could be underlying mechanical issues with components such as the throttle linkage, throttle plate, or idle air control valve (IAC) affecting proper throttle operation. 7) Fuel System: Problems with the fuel system, such as a clogged fuel filter, failing fuel pump, or fuel pressure regulator issues, can also contribute to limp mode activation.
@@kyleewilliams2036 The P2318 trouble code in your 2022 Chevy Malibu refers to an issue with the ignition coil "F" secondary circuit. Specifically, it indicates that there’s a problem with the communication between the ignition control module and the coil on cylinder F (likely cylinder 6, but check your owner's manual to confirm the cylinder layout). Here are common reasons why this code may be triggered: 1) Faulty ignition coil - The coil for the affected cylinder may have failed and needs replacement. 2) Damaged wiring - The wiring harness connected to the coil may be damaged, have poor connections, or be shorting out. 3) Faulty spark plug - A bad spark plug could cause poor ignition performance and trigger the code. 4) Issues with the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) - In some cases, the control module that manages the ignition system may have an issue. 5) Corroded or loose connectors - The electrical connectors for the ignition coil may be corroded or not securely connected. It’s best to start by inspecting the ignition coil and the related wiring for damage or loose connections. If those look fine, testing or replacing the ignition coil and spark plug for the affected cylinder might be necessary.

The P02200 error code typically indicates a problem with the Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor B Circuit having a low input. This issue can arise from various causes. Here are some steps to diagnose and potentially fix the problem: 1) Examine the the Throttle Position Sensor for any visible damage or wear. And also Clean the Sensor 2) Inspect the Wiring. Use a multimeter to check the continuity of the wires to ensure there are no breaks. 3) With a multimeter, check the voltage output from the TPS. Compare it with the manufacturer's specifications. Also Measure the resistance of the sensor and compare it with the expected values 4) Ensure that the vehicle's battery is providing the correct voltage. 5) Use an OBD-II scanner to check for any other related error codes that might give more context to the issue. 6) After making any repairs or adjustments, use the OBD-II scanner to clear the codes and see if the issue persists. 7) If all else fails and the sensor is determined to be faulty, replace it with a new one that meets the manufacturer's specifications. 8) If the problem persists after trying the above steps, it may be best to consult a professional mechanic for further diagnosis and repair.

Have you done an idle relearn procedure on it? You can replace throttle body and pedal position sensor all you want , but if you don’t do the idle relearn afterwards, you’re going nowhere fast (literally and metaphorically lol) because you essentially haven’t programmed that new TB or pedal sensor to the ECU
Fixing a faulty accelerator pedal position sensor may involve several steps. However, it's important to note that working on the electronic components of a vehicle requires a certain level of expertise, and if you're not comfortable or experienced with car repairs, it's advisable to seek help from a professional mechanic. Here are some general steps that might help diagnose and fix an issue with the accelerator pedal position sensor: 1) Check for physical damage or loose connections in the wiring harness connected to the sensor. 2) Ensure that there are no obstructions around the accelerator pedal that could be affecting its movement. 3) Visually inspect the accelerator pedal position sensor and its wiring for any signs of damage or corrosion. 4) Make sure the sensor is securely attached to the pedal assembly. 5) If there is dirt or corrosion on the sensor or its connections, carefully clean them with a contact cleaner or electronic parts cleaner. 6) If the sensor is found to be faulty and cannot be repaired, consider replacing it with a new one. 7) After making any repairs or replacements, reset the Engine Control Unit (ECU) by disconnecting the car battery for about 15-30 minutes. This can help clear any stored error codes and allow the ECU to relearn.
The code P2122 is a generic powertrain diagnostic trouble code typically associated with an issue in the throttle/pedal position sensor/switch "D" circuit. This code indicates that your Engine Control Module has detected a malfunction in the signal from the throttle or pedal position sensor.

The P2116 trouble code is also related to the electronic throttle control system. It indicates a problem specifically with the throttle actuator control system's forced limited power.
