P1219 CADILLAC Meaning
The Throttle Position Sensor (TP) is mounted on the throttle body of the Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) assembly. The sensor is actually 2 individual throttle position sensors in 1 housing. Two separate signal circuits, one low reference circuit and one 5-volt reference circuit are used to connect the TP sensor assembly and the TAC module. The TP sensor signal voltage increases as the throttle opens. The TP sensor signal circuit is pulled up to a 5-volt reference voltage.
