Diag. Code 41, 47(Sub±) Throttle Position Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The throttle position sensor is mounted in the throttle body
and detects the throttle valve opening angle. When the
throttle valve is fully closed, the IDL contacts in the throttle
position sensor are on, so the voltage at the terminal IDL of
the ECU become 0 V. At this time, a voltage of approximately
0.7 V is applied to the terminal VTA of the ECU. When the
throttle valve is opened, the IDL contacts go off and thus the
power source voltage of approximately 12 V in the ECU is ap-
plied to the terminal IDL of the ECU. The voltage applied to
the terminal VTA of the ECU increases in proportion to the
opening angle of the throttle valve and becomes approxi-
mately 3.5±5.0 V when the throttle valve is fully opened. The
ECU judges the vehicle driving conditions from these signals
input from the terminals VTA and IDL, and uses them as one
of the conditions for deciding the air±fuel ratio correction,
power increase correction and fuel±cut control etc. The sub±
throttle position sensor is built and operates in the same way
as the main throttle position sensor. This sensor is used for
traction control. The sub±throttle valve is opened and closed
by the sub±throttle actuator according to signals from the
TRAC ECU to control the engine output.

HINT:
Diag. code 41 is for the throttle position sensor circuit.
Diag. code 47 is for the sub±throttle position sensor circuit.
w When the connector for the (sub±) throttle position sensor is disconnec\
ted, diagnostic code 41 or 47 is not
displayed. Diagnostic code 41 or 47 is displayed only when there is an open or short in the VTA signal circuit
of the (sub±) throttle position sensor.
w Signals from the (sub±) throttle position sensor are also input to the TRAC ECU, So when a malfu\
nction
occurs on the TRAC side, code 41 or 47 may be displayed.
