Code P2123 GMC Description

The Accelerator Pedal Assembly contains 2 Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) sensors. The APP sensors are mounted to the accelerator pedal assembly and are not serviceable. The APP sensors provide a signal voltage that changes relative to the pedal position. The Engine Control Module (ECM) supplies each APP sensor with a 5 V reference circuit, a low reference circuit, and a signal circuit.
Both the APP sensors 1 and 2 signal percentages increase as the pedal is depressed, from approximately 0 percent at rest to above 95 percent when fully depressed.
The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set when the ECM detects that the APP sensor 1 voltage is greater than 4.75 V for less than 1 s.
