Urgency and Severity If your vehicle is displaying the P0132 code, it is generally safe to continue driving in the short term. This generic powertrain code indicates an issue with the upstream oxygen sensor on bank 1, but it will not cause immediate damage. However, leaving this code unaddressed for an extended period can potentially

The P0122 diagnostic trouble code (DTC) indicates that the engine control module (ECM) has detected a low voltage input from the throttle position sensor (TPS) circuit "A". This code is a generic powertrain code that applies to most makes and models. In our workshop, we've encountered the P0122 code quite frequently across various makes and

Understanding and Troubleshooting the P0123 Diagnostic Trouble Code The P0123 diagnostic trouble code (DTC) indicates a "Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch 'A' Circuit High Input" issue. When this code appears, it means the throttle position sensor (TPS) is sending a signal to the engine control module (ECM) that exceeds the expected voltage range. While the vehicle may

The P0121 code indicates a performance issue with the throttle position sensor (TPS) circuit. This is a generic OBD-II code that applies to most vehicles, but the exact definition and symptoms may vary slightly between makes and models. In our workshop, we've noticed that the P0121 code is a relatively common issue across various makes

The P0120 engine code indicates a problem with the throttle position sensor (TPS) or its circuit. This code is triggered when the powertrain control module (PCM) detects an abnormal voltage from the TPS. Urgency and Severity When the P0120 code is detected, it's generally safe to continue driving in the short term. However, you may
