p063e – Throttle Pedal Position Sensor Switch E Circuit Range Performance Problem

Typical Severity: Moderate

Common Causes

p063e – Throttle Pedal Position Sensor Switch E Circuit Range Performance Problem

  • Common causes of OBD2 code p063e:
    • Faulty throttle pedal position sensor
    • Wiring issues in the throttle pedal position sensor circuit
    • Poor electrical connection related to the throttle pedal position sensor switch E circuit
    • Software glitches in the engine control module (ECM)

 

Common Misdiagnosis

OBD2 Code: P063E

Description: Throttle Pedal Position Sensor/Switch E Circuit Range/Performance Problem

Common Misdiagnosis: Replacing the throttle pedal position sensor without checking for wiring issues or connector problems.

 

Common Diagnostic Steps

OBD2 Code: P063E

Description: Throttle Pedal Position Sensor/Switch E Circuit Range/Performance Problem

Common Diagnostic Steps:

  • Check for any additional trouble codes that may be present and address them first.
  • Inspect the throttle pedal position sensor and its wiring for damage, corrosion, or disconnection.
  • Test the voltage and ground signals at the throttle pedal position sensor using a multimeter to ensure they are within specifications.
  • Verify the integrity of the electrical connectors and pins associated with the throttle pedal position sensor circuit.
  • Use a scan tool to monitor live data from the throttle pedal position sensor to check for irregular readings or fluctuations.
  • If applicable, perform a relearn procedure for the throttle body system as per manufacturer guidelines.
  • If all else fails, consider replacing the throttle pedal position sensor if it is determined to be faulty after testing.
