What does the p2105 OBD-II trouble code mean?
The P2105 OBD-II trouble code is one of number of possible codes that indicates that the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has detected a malfunction and is limiting the operation of the Throttle Actuator Control System.
When does the PCM set the p2105 code?
The PCM sets these when other codes are present that indicate an issue that may be safety related or cause damage to the engine or drivetrain components if not corrected in a timely manner. Code P2105 is set by the PCM to force the Throttle Actuator Control System to shut the engine down.
What does force code P2104 stand for?
This situation is known as activating a fail-safe or limp mode to prevent the engine from accelerating until this malfunction is corrected and the associated code is cleared. There are four codes that are referred to as force codes and they are P2104, P2105, P2106 and P2110.

What to do if you get trouble code P2106?
In some circumstances this can save a lot of time in the long run by pointing you in the right direction. This is an important step, just as one example, some Fords from 2003-2005 are affected by a P2106 and/or other code and the fix is to reprogram the PCM. The second step for this code is to complete a PCM scan to identify other trouble codes.
