STEP	CHECK	YES	NO
1.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL. 1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF. 2) Disconnect the connectors from ECM and electronic throttle control. 3) Measure the resistance between ECM connector and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (E158) No. 32 — Chassis ground: (E158) No. 29 — Chassis ground: (E158) No. 29 — (E158) No. 19:	Is the resistance 1 M- or more-	Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0122 THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH "A" CIRCUIT LOW	Repair the ground short circuit of harness between ECM connector and electronic throttle control connector.
2.CHECK SHORT CIRCUIT INSIDE THE ECM. 1) Connect the connector to ECM. 2) Measure the resistance between electronic throttle control connector and engine ground. Connector & terminal (E57) No. 6 — Engine ground:	Is the resistance 1 M- or more-	Replace the electronic throttle control. Throttle Body	Repair the ground short circuit of harness between ECM connector and electronic throttle control connector. Replace the ECM if defective. Engine Control Module (ECM)

1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS

Stopping the engine
WARNING Do not stop the engine when the vehicle is moving. This will cause loss of power to the power steering and the brake booster, making steering and braking more difficult. It could also result in accidental activation of the "LOCK" position on the ignition switch ...
