DTC P2138: Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensor 1-2 Correlation
Electronic throttle control problem .
The throttle actuator control (TAC) system delivers improved throttle response and greater reliability and eliminates the need for mechanical cable. The TAC system performs the following functions:
• Accelerator pedal position sensing
• Throttle positioning to meet driver and engine demands
• Throttle position sensing
• Internal diagnostics
• Cruise control functions
• Manage TAC electrical power consumption
The TAC system includes the following components:
• The accelerator pedal position (APP) sensors
• The throttle body assembly
• The engine control module (ECM)

Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensor
The accelerator pedal contains 2 individual accelerator pedal position (APP) sensors within the assembly. The APP sensors 1 and 2 are potentiometer type sensors each with 3 circuits:
• A 5-volt reference circuit
• A low reference circuit
• A signal circuit
The APP sensors are used to determine the pedal angle. The engine control module (ECM) provides each APP sensor a 5-volt reference circuit and a low reference circuit. The APP sensors provide the ECM with signal voltage proportional to the pedal movement. The APP sensor 1 signal voltage at rest position is less than 1 volt and increases to more than 4 volts as the pedal is actuated. The APP sensor 2 signal voltage at rest position is less than 0.6 volt and increases to more than 2 volts as the pedal is actuated.

Bad knock sensor or rod bearing/main bearing failure.

Ravi, I also have the same issue and confused between upstream left and right location.


I have problem with bank 2 sensor 1 and want to purchase a part. There are two part numbers 234-9007 for upstream left and 234-9009 for right.

So not sure the one on radiator (bank 2 sensor 1) side is upstream left or upstream right.

If you already know can you please reply?

code #0406 = egr position sensor circuit high ( stuck egr valve or bad egr sensor most likely sensor )

code #2096 = downstream fuel trim system lean ( see next code )

code #0137 = O2 sensor bank 1 sensor 2 circuit low ( replace rear O2 sensor driver side )

code #2299 = brake peddle position/accelerator pedal position incompatible. ( hav you been power braking this truck? ) ( brake light was on wile accelerator was being pushed )

You didnt say what eng you have, but all have 4 O2's sensors, 2 upstreams, 2 down streams, left side up is 1/1,left side dwn is 2/1, right side up is 1/2, right side dwn is 2/2, on the exhaust system, always 2 sensor before the cats and 2 after the cats, depending on fuse, 5 v supply to sensors or 12v to the heater part of sensor, you have a short to ground in the harness of one sensor, check all harness and wiring, or a internal short in one sensor, there is also a relay that cotrolls the o2 sensors, swap it out, if you need more info, just ask. GOOD LUCK, RDJRP

What you have to do is replace the o2 sensor on bank 1 sensor 1.This is the front sensor on the left side on the exhaust system.Left side is bank 1 and right side is bank 2.Make sure the connections are good first.Usually it`s the internal heater in the o2 sensor.Hope this helps.Good luck.

P0138 is a code for an unexpected high voltage in the post cat o2 sensor on the left side (bank 1 sensor 2). It often is a result of an internal short between the oxygen sensor heater and the actual oxygen sensor. I would clear the core and if it returns replace the sensor.
