Jay :

Hello and thank you for using JustAnswer.com

Jay :

All of those codes are related to the electronic throttle chamber.

Jay :

To correct this the whole throttle chamber assembly needs to be replaced and a idle relearn performed

Jay :

to correct your problem.

Customer : I have a 2007 tps sensor Would that work if I install it and then clear the code?
Customer : But I did check both tps sensor with a dmm both read 5.0 o
Customer : Ohmz
Jay :

Some things you can't go by.

Jay :

On of the codes is for the Throttle motor

Jay :

So you could have a TPS code since the throttle motor is inop

Customer : And I use my friend scanner it said wasn't getting enough voltage . The battery is one year old don't think that's the problem . Would it be the wire?
Jay :

I never see a harness issue on this

Jay :

It's almost always the throttle chamber

Customer : So you recommend install new tps relearn performe and that should fix it?
Jay :

I suggest you get a new complete throttle chamber assembly and perform a manual idle relearn to resolve your problem

Customer : I have 2007 complete throttle chamber is tht ok or should I just go but one
Customer : Buy one*
Jay :

The P1122 which is Electronic Throttle function code is related to the throttle motor. This is most likely the cause of the other TPS sensor codes cause it's calling for a voltage signal, and the throttle motor can't move to have the correct voltage sent. That is what causes that code

Jay :


You have another throttle chamber? other than the one that is on the car? Do you know if it's good?

Customer : If it does work can I I stall it and disconnect battrys for 30min and that should fix it. And if it doesn't work I guess I have to go buy one 204 dollars
Jay :

1 sec plz

Jay :

That won't work

Jay :

You have to do the idle relearn after you replace it

Jay :

I can give you the manual steps to perform this

Jay :

but if you can't get it, then it will need to be done with a scanner

Jay :

Let me know if you want the manual steps.

Customer : I can get the scanner. And I think the manual steps are 10 second on 2 seconds of 10 seconds on 2 second of?
Customer : I'm going to try to do it right now I'll get back with you
Jay :

That is the accelerator pedal position relearn

Customer : Oh can you get me the steps please
Jay :

sure

Jay :

give me a min

Jay :

Those are the steps to perform a manual idle relearn

Customer : Damn ok I'll give it a try
Jay :

You got it

Jay :

If you have any more questions on this, please feel free to ask. Thanks Jay!

Customer : Thank you
Jay :

Your welcome

Jay :
