Check the 'Possible Causes' listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector pins.
The cost to diagnose the P0222 BMW code is 1.0 hour of labor. The diagnosis time and labor rates at auto repair shops vary depending on the location, make and model of the vehicle, and even the engine type. Most auto repair shops charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
The accelerator pedal position is monitored separately by 2 individual sensors. Two sensors are employed to provide redundancy, implement the monitoring function, and facilitate recognition of malfunctions. The sensors register accelerator-pedal travel as angular deflection, with data being transmitted directly to the engine-management control unit as analog linear voltage curves for the pedal angle. Overall pedal travel is mechanically expressed as 16° ±0.5°. Each change in the accelerator-pedal position is transmitted to the engine-management control unit with a maximum lag of 50 milliseconds. Sensor signals are transmitted in analog form. The engine-management control unit monitors the two input signals from the sensors and compares them for plausibility (factors such as mutual synchronicity, linearity, etc.). The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is detected when the voltage of the throttle valve sensor (2) is less than the lower limit. Lower limit: 0.2 V.
