(Section 06 - Engine/Propulsion System)
Condition
- Some customers may comment on an intermittent malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) being Illuminated with a message or an indicator that
displays Reduced Engine Power.
- The technician may observe on a scan tool DTC P2138 - Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensor 1-2 Correlation set as Current or in
History.
Cause
This condition may be caused by water intrusion into the instrument panel (IP) to body harness connector, which carries the APP sensor signals to
the ECM/PCM. This water intrusion results in a voltage difference between APP Sensor 1 and APP Sensor 2 that exceeds a predetermined value for
more than a calibrated period of time, setting P2138.
Correction
Note
Aftermarket equipment can generate DTC P2138 and/or other DTCs.
1. Verify that aftermarket equipment is not electrically connected to any of the APP sensor signal or low reference circuits or to any other
ECM/PCM 5V reference or low reference circuits. Refer to Checking Aftermarket Accessories in SI.
2. Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle.
瀚慖f any 5V reference DTCs are set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.
瀚慖f any 5V reference DTCs are not set, proceed to Step 3.
3. Locate the IP to body harness connector, which may be located in and around the left hand kick panel area or inside the IP. Depending on the
vehicle and model year, refer to Wiring Systems or Power and Signal Distribution in SI.
Note
Some examples of potential water leaks are: A-pillar seals, sunroof drain lines (if equipped) and windshield/cowl sealing.
4. Inspect for a water leak in the area. If necessary use a water hose to determine the source of the leak. Refer to General Information > Water
Leaks in SI.
瀚慖f a water leak is observed, repair as necessary. Verify the effectiveness of the repair.

Connections in SI.
瀚慖f any corrosion and/or debris is observed, repair as necessary.
6. After completing the repair, verify the proper operation of the system. Depending on the vehicle and model year, perform the Diagnostic
Repair Verification procedure or refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle in SI.
