INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check voltage between terminal VTA2 of throttle control ECU and body ground.
PREPARATION:
(a) Remove throttle control ECU with connectors still con-
nected.
(b) Remove intake air duct.
(c) Disconnect sub-throttle valve motor connector.
(d) Turn ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Measure voltage between terminal VTA2 of throttle control ECU
and body ground, when the sub-throttle valve is fully closed
and fully open.
OK:
Sub-throttle valve positionVoltage
Fully closed0.3 - 0.8 V
Fully open3.2 - 4.9 V
OK Go to step 3.

2 Check for open and short in harness and connector between terminal VTA2 of
throttle control ECU and terminal VTO2 of ECM (See page IN-28).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.
OK
Check and replace throttle control ECU.
3 Check sub-throttle position sensor (See page DI-243).
NG Adjust or replace sub-throttle position sensor
(See page SF-44).
OK

DTC 31 Throttle Position Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This circuit is not directly related to the TRAC control, but as it has an influence on TRAC control when trouble
occurs in this circuit, it is used to switch off the TRAC system as a fail safe function.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
The main throttle position sensor signal is transmitted to the throttle control ECU from ECM, so if an error
occurs at the engine side, the throttle control ECU also detects it.
If DTC No. P0120 or P0121 is being output for the engine, troubleshoot the engine first.
1 Is DTC output for the engine?
Check DTC on page DI-147.
YES Repair circuit indicated by the code output.
NO
2 Check voltage between terminal IDL1 of throttle control ECU and body ground.
PREPARATION:
(a) Remove throttle control ECU with connectors still con-
nected.
(b) Disconnect the vacuum hose from the throttle opener,
and apply vacuum to the throttle opener.
(c) Turn ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Measure voltage between terminal IDL1 of throttle control ECU
and body ground, when the throttle valve is fully closed and fully
open.
OK:
Throttle valve positionVoltage
Fully closed0 - 3 V
Fully open9 - 14 V
OK Go to step 4.
