Fault-Tracing Information






Fault-tracing

Checking the status




- Ignition on.
Activate the upper primary actuator.
Check if the fault is permanent or intermittent.
Check that the throttle unit is activated.

Hint: It may be necessary to remove the throttle unit from the induction pipe to ensure proper functionality.

The fault is permanent if the function is faulty.
If the function is correct, this is an indication that the fault was present previously but is not active at the moment, i.e. an intermittent fault.





Continue - Checking the component and wiring

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

Checking the component and wiring
Check the voltage on throttle unit connector #3 to the system relay. The voltage must be approximately battery voltage when the ignition is on.
Check signal cable for an open-circuit and short-circuit to supply voltage.
Take readings between:
- Engine control module (ECM) terminal #A38 (#A38) and throttle unit terminal #1.
Remedy as necessary.
