I keep getting this trouble code, but don't know what it means. I reset the check engine light, but it comes back every once in a while.
42
"Idle switch Abnormal voltage input entered from idle switch Judges OFF operation"
Code 42???

Re: Code 42???
Welcome to the BBS.
The idle switch is built into the throttle position sensor (TPS). You can follow the instructions in this scan to check if the idle switch is adjusted properly. If not, you can readjust it. Or if it can't be adjusted properly or the code continues, you can try replacing the TPS with a used one.

Here are the previous two scans for the TPS
