C0619Brake Pedal Position Sensor A Offset Exceeded Learning Limit

  • Generic OBD-II code · Chassis
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Can trigger limp mode
  • Needs a drive cycle to confirm a fix
How the car detects it
Pedal position sensors are taught their rest value, and C0619 says the offset found for channel A lies outside the band the controller will accept. A Hitachi patent on electric boosters learns the stroke sensor zero only with the pedal released and no brake request, and treats a zero beyond a prescribed range as a sensor fault. Mitsubishi's 2023 Outlander PHEV maps C18EE-96 (abnormal stroke sensor value) to C0619, with MIL and brake warnings after two trips; boost, regenerative braking and automatic braking stop. GM's PIT5206D shows the field side: a wiring dropout made the ECM learn 0.61 V instead of about 1 V, so it saw the brake applied. GM relearns after any sensor or module service (16-NA-155).
What you may notice
  • Brake or brake system warning lamp; check engine lamp on some vehicles
  • Brake lights, cruise control or shifting behave as if the pedal were pressed
  • Reduced brake assist or regenerative braking on electrified models
Likely causes
  • LikelyIntermittent connection in the sensor circuit that skewed the learned value
  • PossiblePedal not returning fully (floor mat, stiff pivot, wrong adjustment)
  • PossibleSensor drifted or fitted out of position after replacement
  • RareLearn procedure skipped or disturbed after sensor or module service
