P2132Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch F Circuit Low

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Matters for the ITP
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
P2132 sets when signal F drops below its lower voltage limit. Ford uses it for the third accelerator pedal track of its second-generation electronic throttle: its 2012 OBD summary treats anything under 0.25 V as a continuity fault and lights only the wrench lamp, not the MIL. FCA's emissions recall T21 for the 2004-2006 Dodge Sprinter lists P2132 among the codes that may appear after the engine control unit is reprogrammed. GM's TACM trucks of 2004-2005 fold low readings of sensor 3 into the general code P2130. Likely causes are a short to ground on the F signal, an open 5 V feed or wear at the closed end of the track. P2133 is the high fault on F, P2122 and P2127 the low faults on tracks D and E.
