P0510 OBD-II: Closed Throttle Position Switch
P0510 Severity
Moderate
Will P0510 go away on its own?
Once the vehicle's onboard system no longer detects the issue, most codes will disappear on their own. If your vehicle still has this code, however, it should be properly diagnosed to avoid a more serious problem.
For a proper diagnosis, RepairPal Certified shops have the equipment, tools, and expertise.
Moderate severity codes might not threaten the vehicle's safety or functionality immediately, but you should still get it diagnosed within a reasonable time frame to keep your car running well.
What causes OBD-II fault code P0510?
The Closed Throttle Position Switch tells the engine control module (PCM) that the throttle plate is closed. If the PCM detects an incorrect signal from the Closed Throttle Position Switch, the PCM will set code P0510.
