Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor E Minimum Stop Performance

Where it lives

For P2116, the part to look at first is the sensor named here.

Check these first

• A throttle position sensor E that fails its minimum stop test
• A dirty or corroded throttle position sensor E connector
• An open or short in the sensor E circuit
• A throttle body that does not return to its stop

What to do next

1. Read throttle position sensor E at the minimum stop on a scan tool
2. Clean the sensor E connector
3. Test the sensor E circuit for open and short faults
4. Check the throttle body for carbon or binding at the stop
5. Replace throttle position sensor E if it fails the minimum stop test
6. Clear the code and retest
