POSSIBLE CAUSE

DTC P2122

  • Harness or connectors

    (APP sensor 1 circuit is open or shorted.)

  • Accelerator pedal position sensor

    (APP sensor 1)

DTC P2123

  • Harness or connectors

    (APP sensor 1 circuit is open or shorted.)

  • Accelerator pedal position sensor

    (APP sensor 1)

FAIL-SAFE

Engine operating condition in fail-safe mode
Fail safe mode Nissan Murano Vehicle behavior
Accelerator pedal position sensor

The ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator in regulating the throttle opening in order for the idle position to be within +10 degrees.

The ECM regulates the opening speed of the throttle valve to be slower than the normal condition.

Therefore, the acceleration will be poor.
DTC Confirmation Procedure

CHECK DTC PRIORITY

If DTC P2122 or P2123 is displayed with DTC P0643, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0643.
