Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch D/E Voltage Correlation
Generic · engine
Data confidence85%
The control module detected a fault associated with the Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch D/E Voltage Correlation circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode.
APP D/E circuit disagreement
Ford · engine
Data confidence94%
Ford documents P2138:00 (no sub type information) for its 2024-2025 gasoline-engine OBD monitor strategy as app d/e circuit disagreement. This three-byte interpretation is application-specific and identifies the detected monitor condition rather than a confirmed failed component.

Frequently asked questions about P2138
What does P2138 mean?
Diagnostic Trouble Code (2 variants). The control module detected a fault associated with the Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch D/E Voltage Correlation circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode.
Is P2138 generic or manufacturer-specific?
P2138 exists both as a generic OBD-II code (same meaning on every make) and with 1 manufacturer-specific interpretation(s): Ford. Always read it in the context of your vehicle.
Can TuningBot remove P2138 at file level?
If the fault logic lives in the ECU calibration, yes: our DTC Removal file service disables the specific fault entry. Checksum correction is not included: it is a separate, optional service. Not sure whether your case qualifies? Request a free assessment and our engineers will check your ECU file.
