P1512 Diagnostic Trouble Code (10 interpretations)
10 manufacturer-specific interpretations across 10 manufacturers in the TuningBot DTC database.
Alfa Romeo
1 interpretation
Chevrolet
1 interpretationThe control module detected a fault associated with the Throttle control unit - signal variation circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Chevrolet.
Possible causes
- Wiring
- throttle control unit
- ECM
Hyundai
1 interpretationThe control module detected a fault associated with the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - Low circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Hyundai.
Jaguar
1 interpretationThe control module detected that the Closed throttle position (CTP) switch signal stayed below the expected range. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Jaguar.
Possible causes
- Wiring
- CTP switch
- ECM
Land Rover
1 interpretationThe control module determined that the Intake manifold air control system, bank 1 - valve did not change state as commanded and appears stuck. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Land Rover.
Possible causes
- Wiring
- intake manifold air control system
- mechanical fault
Mazda
1 interpretationThe control module registered the fault condition described as "Intake manifold air control - stuck close". This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Mazda.
Possible causes
- Wiring
- air control solenoid
- ECM
MINI
1 interpretationThe control module detected that the DISA Control signal stayed below the expected range. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by MINI.
Subaru
1 interpretationThe control module detected that the Idle air (IAC) control valve, circuit 2 voltage stayed below the expected range. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Subaru.
Possible causes
- Wiring
- lAC valve
- ECM
Suzuki
1 interpretationThe control module detected improper operation of the Main Throttle Idle Actuator. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Suzuki.
VAG
1 interpretationThe control module detected a short circuit to battery voltage in the Intake manifold air control solenoid 1 circuit. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Audi.
Possible causes
- Wiring short to positive
- intake manifold air control solenoid
