M16/6 (Throttle valve actuator) : Actual value potentiometer 1 or 2 has failed. (P2135)


Possible cause:

- M16/6 (Throttle valve actuator)
Affected functions:

- Engine diagnosis
- Engine output

-------------------------------------------------

Test 1: Check component M16/6 (Throttle valve actuator).

1. Check component M16/6 (Throttle valve actuator).

Test 1.1: Check component M16/6 (Throttle valve actuator) using actual value.

Test 1.2: Test voltage supply of the potentiometers of component M16/6 (Throttle valve actuator).

1.1. Check component M16/6 (Throttle valve actuator) using actual value.
Warning!Communication with ECU required.


1.2. Test voltage supply of the potentiometers of component M16/6 (Throttle valve actuator).
Test prerequisite

- At least one of the relevant actual values is not okay.
- The power supply of component N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit) is OK.
Test sequence

- Switch off ignition.
- Connect socket box (126-pin) to component N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit).
- Measure direct voltage with multimeter between sockets (M.39) 39 and (M.43) 43 of the 35-pole socket box tester.
- Switch on ignition.
Specified value

- Voltage[4.75...5.25] V
Question

- Is the measurement value OK?


YES
The measurement value is OK.Possible cause and remedy

- Check lines from component M16/6 (Throttle valve actuator) to component N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit).
End of test

NO
The measurement value is not OK.Possible cause and remedy

- N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit)
