Brake Pedal Position Sensor A/B Correlation

17 brands affected · Generic SAE J2012 description.

Key terms: SAE J2012: the standard generic code list · Powertrain: engine, transmission and emissions

Safety: This code relates to the braking system. Have braking checked promptly.

1What it means in plain English

This range covers vehicle speed, idle and oil-pressure control, charging-system voltage, and brake-switch circuits.

2Common causes

  1. Carbon build-up in the throttle body
  2. Faulty idle air control valve
  3. Faulty vehicle speed sensor
  4. Faulty charging system or weak battery
  5. Wiring or connector fault

3Can I drive?

Caution · drive with care

The braking system may be affected. Have it checked promptly; if the pedal feels abnormal, the car pulls when braking, or a brake warning light is on, stop safely.

This page gives general information. It is not professional advice. For a definite diagnosis and a repair quote, ask a qualified mechanic to inspect the car.
