| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P1222 | Throttle Motor Circuit Range/Performance |
DESCRIPTION
Throttle control motor is operated by the ECM and opens and closes the throttle valve.
The fully open position of the throttle valve is detected by the throttle open switch which is mounted on the venturi assembly.
If this DTC is stored, the ECM shuts down the power for the throttle control motor.

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
Tech Tips
Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE
INSPECT THROTTLE OPEN SWITCH
| *a | Component without harness connected (Throttle Open Switch) |
Disconnect the throttle open switch connector.
Remove the venturi assembly.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
