Throttle valve control module,
checking

Note:
If the throttle valve control module -J338- is
removed and installed, or replaced, adaptation of
the throttle valve control module to the Motronic
ECM is required Page 24

Function

Idle speed stabilization is integrated in the
throttle valve control module -J338-. In the
housing opposite the throttle valve are Throttle
Position (TP) sensor -G69-, Closed Throttle
Position (CTP) switch -F60-, throttle drive -G186-
and angle sensor -1- for throttle drive -G187-.

The housing should not be opened.
The individual components cannot be replaced or
mechanically adjusted. All adjustments are
accomplished by the VAG 1551 Scan Tool (ST)
using the "Basic Setting" function 04.
If the complete throttle valve control module is
without power (i.e. disconnected), the throttle
valve assumes a mechanical closed throttle
position that results in an increased idle speed of
1200-1300 RPM (with engine at operating
temperature).
If only the Throttle Position (TP) actuator -V60- is
without power, the throttle valve also assumes a
mechanical closed throttle position (limp-home
position), but because the signal from the CTP
switch -F60- can still be recognized, a nearly
"normal" idle speed of approx. 900 RPM is
maintained with a corresponding reduction of the
ignition timing advance.
If the Engine Control Module (ECM) recognizes a

(limp-home position).

Throttle valve control module power
supply, checking


If voltage is NOT OK: - Disconnect 8-pin harness connector from throttle valve control module
-J338-.
- Connect multimeter US 1119 (Fluke 83 or equivalent) between harness
connector terminals using adapter cables from VW 1594 connector test
kit.
- Switch ignition on, and check voltage. Specified values:

Connector terminals 3 and 7 (Ground): 9.0-14.5 volts
Connector terminals 4 and 7 (Ground): 4.0-6.0 volts
- Switch ignition off.
- Connect VAG 1598/22 test box Page 01

.

- Check wiring for open circuit between ECM/test box and 8-pin harness
connector.

Connector terminal 3 to ECM/test box socket 69
Connector terminal 4 to ECM/test box socket 62
Connector terminal 7 to ECM/test box socket 67
Specified value: max. 1.5
