ECM Terminals and Reference Value
=NGEC0081
Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may result in dam-
age to the ECMs transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

P0120 A) An excessively low or high voltage from the sensor
is sent to ECM.*
Harness or connectors
(The throttle position sensor circuit is open or
shorted.)
Throttle position sensor
B) A high voltage from the sensor is sent to ECM
under light load driving condition.
Harness or connectors
(The throttle position sensor circuit is open or
shorted.)
Throttle position sensor
Fuel injector
Camshaft position sensor
Mass air flow sensor
C) A low voltage from the sensor is sent to ECM under
heavy load driving condition.
Harness or connectors
(The throttle position sensor circuit is open or

*: When this malfunction is detected, the ECM enters fail-safe mode and the MIL lights up.
Detected items Engine operating condition in fail-safe mode
Throttle position sensor
circuit
Throttle position will be determined based on the injected fuel amount and the engine speed.
Therefore, acceleration will be poor.

When engine is idling Normal
When accelerating Poor acceleration
