?1.
Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

?2.
Clear the DTC with the HDS.


?3.
Check the parameter(s) below with the HDS.

TP SENSOR B
More than 4.8
V
   

Do the current condition(s) match the threshold?

     
YES
     
     
     
The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.
     
NO
     
     
     
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the throttle body and the PCM. If the on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the on-board snapshot.?
2.
Determine possible failure area (SG3(DBW) line, others):

P0223 TP Sensor B Circuit High Voltage
   

Are DTC P0123 and P0223 indicated at the same time?

     
YES
     
     
     
Go to step 5.
     
NO
     
     
     
Go to step 3.
3.
Determine possible failure area (throttle body, others):

Determine possible failure area (throttle body, others)
?1.
Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

?2.
Disconnect the following connector.
Throttle body 6P connector

?3.
Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

?4.
Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition
Vehicle ON mode
 
Throttle body 6P connector: disconnected
Test point 1
Throttle body 6P connector No. 4
Test point 2
Body ground


Is there about 5.0 V?

     
YES
     
     
     
     
NO
     
     
     
Go to step 4.
4.
Open wire check (THL2 line):

Open wire check (THL2 line)
?1.
Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

?2.
Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.


?3.
Disconnect the following connector.
PCM connector E (80P)

?4.
Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition
Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
 
Throttle body 6P connector: disconnected
 
PCM connector E (80P): disconnected
Test point 1
Throttle body 6P connector No. 4
Test point 2


Is there continuity?

     
YES
     
     
     
The THL2 wire is OK. Check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If DTC P0223 goes away and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM.?
     
NO
     
     
     
Repair an open in the THL2 wire between the PCM (E51) and the throttle body.?
5.
Open wire check (SG3(DBW) line):

Open wire check (SG3(DBW) line)
?1.
Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

?2.
Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.


?3.
Disconnect the following connectors.
PCM connector E (80P)
Throttle body 6P connector

?4.
Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition
Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
 
PCM connector E (80P): disconnected
 
Throttle body 6P connector: disconnected
Test point 1
Throttle body 6P connector No. 3
Test point 2


Is there continuity?

     
YES
     
     
     
The SG3(DBW) wire is OK. Check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If DTC P0223 goes away and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM.?
     
NO
     
     
     
Repair an open in the SG3(DBW) wire between the PCM (E76) and the throttle body.?
