Note:
The control module can abort adaptation for the
following reasons:

Throttle valve cannot be closed completely (e.g.
contamination).
Battery voltage is too low.
Throttle valve control module or wire connection
is faulty.
Engine is started during adaptation or
accelerator pedal is operated.
Tension of throttle valve housing (check
bolts).
After termination, tester displays "Function is
unknown or cannot be performed at the
moment". The next time the ignition is switched
on (several seconds), adaptation will be
automatically repeated.

- End basic adjustment of the engine by pressing
the key.

for throttle drive (power accelerator actuation) -
G188- inform the Engine Control Module (ECM)
about the position of the throttle valve. Both
angle sensors are located in the throttle valve
control module.

Note:
Engine Control Module (ECM) calculates the
voltage values of the angle sensors in percent
relative to 5 volts and displays these percentage
values. (5 volts supply voltage represents 100
%).

- Observe display field 1 and 2.

- Slowly depress accelerator pedal completely.
Percent indication in display field 1 must rise
uniformly. In the process, the tolerance range of
3 to 93% is not completely utilized.
Percent indication in display field 2 must
decrease uniformly. The tolerance range 97 to 3
% is not used completely during this.

Note:

The reason why the value indicated in display
field 1 climbs, while the value indicated in
display field 2 decreases, has to do with the fact
that the potentiometers (angle sensors) in the
throttle valve control unit run in opposite
directions.
This means that the voltage tap of angle sensor
1 runs from 0 to 5 volts. (The more the throttle
valve is opened, the larger the voltage; percent
indication climbs).
The voltage tap of angle sensor 2 runs from 5
to 0 volts. (The more the throttle valve is
opened, the lower the voltage; the percentage
decreases).
If indications do not resemble description:

- Check voltage supply and wire connections of
throttle valve control module Page 24
-131
.
Pay particular attention to harness connectors
that could be loose or corroded.

- Check accelerator pedal position sensor Page

- Pull connector -2- off throttle valve control
module.

- Switch ignition on.

If specified values are not obtained: - Connect multimeter for voltage measurement as follows:Harness connector
