P2114Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor C Minimum Stop Performance
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light
- Matters for the ITP
- Can trigger limp mode
- How the car detects it
- This code reports that position signal C does not show a believable value while its throttle or pedal sits on the lower stop. The controller learns or expects a minimum reading within a tolerance band and flags a fault when the learned value falls outside it. Letter C is rarely assigned: Ford and GM use A/B for the throttle and D/E/F for the pedal, so C appears only on layouts with a third sensor. No manufacturer documents this code publicly; the logic follows the A version P2109 (Subaru) and the Delphi minimum-learn patent. P2113 and P2115-P2117 are the same test for other letters, P2136/P2137 compare C against A or B. Expect a warning lamp and possibly limited power.
