Engine RPM/Vehicle Speed Limiter

PCM will disable some or all fuel injectors whenever an engine RPM or vehicle overspeed condition is detected. This prevents damage to the powertrain. Excessive wheel slippage caused by sand, gravel, rain, mud, snow, ice, etc. or excessive and sudden increase in RPM while in NEUTRAL or while driving may cause engine RPM/vehicle speed limiter to be enabled. When engine RPM/vehicle speed limiter has been enabled, vehicle will exhibit a rough running engine condition, and PCM will store DTC P1270. After driver reduces excessive speed, engine will return to normal operating mode. No repairs are required. Technician should clear DTC from PCM and inform customer of the reason for DTC. Excessive wheel slippage may be caused by sand, gravel, rain, mud, snow, ice, etc. or excessive and sudden increase in RPM while in Neutral or while driving.
