The engine control module (ECM) reads analog data from the accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor and processes the analog data into digital data in order to interface with the powertrain software. If the ECM microprocessor can not perform this task then this DTC will set.
• | The ignition switch is in the crank or run position. |
• | The ignition voltage is between 7-16 volts. |
• | The ECM microprocessor can not process APP analog data into digital data. |
• | All of the above conditions are present for less than 1 second. |
• | The control module stores the DTC information into memory when the diagnostic runs and fails. |
• | The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will not illuminate. |
• | The driver information center, if equipped, may display a message. |
• | The ECM defaults to 0 percent APP. |
• | A current DTC Last Test Failed clears when the diagnostic runs and passes. |
• | Clear the DTC with a scan tool. |

1 | Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check-Engine Controls? | Go to Step 2 | |
2 | Replace the ECM. Refer to Engine Control Module Replacement/Restore Fuel Rate Data . Did you complete the replacement? | Go to Step 3 | -- |

Does the DTC run and pass? | Go to Step 4 | Go to Step 2 |
4 | With a scan tool, observe the stored information, Capture Info. Does the scan tool display any DTCs that you have not diagnosed? | System OK |
