P2134: Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch F Circuit Intermittent
Do not keep driving
Brief power losses that recover deserve prompt attention. Mention whether they relate to pedal position or rough surfaces.
What this code means
Sensor F's signal drops out or jumps briefly. The urgency argument under P2124 applies: intermittent power restrictions are worse to drive with than permanent ones, because they arrive unannounced.

Information, not instruction
CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.
Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:
- The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
- What you measured, not only what you replaced.
- What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
