Code No.78 Accelerator pedal position sensor (1st
channel) system
Range of check
D Accelerator pedal position sensor (2nd channel) system is normal.
D Communication between the engine-ECU and throttle valve controller is normal.
Set conditions
D Output voltage of accelerator position sensor (1st channel) system is 0.2 V or
less for one second.
or
D Output voltage of the accelerator pedal position sensor (2nd channel) is 2.5 V
or less, and (1st channel) output voltage of the accelerator pedal position sensor
is 4.5 V or more for one second.
or
D 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).
or
D Although the accelerator pedal position switch is on, 1st-channel output voltage
of the accelerator pedal position sensor exceeds 1.1 V for one second.
MUT-II Data list
26 Accelerator pedal position switch
(P.13A-9.)
OK
Check the accelerator pedal position
sensor (1st channel). (Refer to P.13A-
11.)
OK
Measure at the accelerator pedal posi-
tion sensor connector A-103.
D Disconnect the connector, and
measure at the harness side.
D Voltage between terminal 2 and
earth (Ignition switch: ON)
OK: 4.8 - 5.2 V
D Continuity between terminal 1 and
earth
OK: Continuity
OK
Measure at the engine-ECU B-51.
D Connect the connector.
D Voltage between terminal 87 and
earth
(Ignition switch: ON)
OK: 0.3 - 1.0 V
(Accelerator pedal: fully re-
leased)
4.2 - 5.5 V
(Accelerator pedal: fully de-
pressed)
OK

Troubleshooting
NG
Check the accelerator pedal position
switch system. (Refer to P.13A-7, IN-
SPECTION PROCEDURE 27.)
NG
Replace the accelerator pedal position
sensor assembly.
NG
Check the following connectors:
A-27, B-51
Check trouble symptom.
NG
Check the following connectors:
A-27, A-103
Check trouble symptom.
NG
Check the accelerator pedal position
sensor (2nd channel) system. (Refer
to P.13A-4, INSPECTION PROCE-
DURE FOR DIAGNOSIS CODE 77.)
Probable cause
D Malfunction of the accelerator pedal position sensor
(1st channel)
D Open circuit or short-circuited harness wire in the
accelerator pedal position sensor (1st channel) system,
or poor connector contact
D ON-seizure of the accelerator pedal position switch
D Malfunction of the throttle valve controller
D Malfunction of the engine-ECU
