NOTE
*: The idle position switch normally turns off when the voltage of the throttle position sensor is 50 –
100 mV higher than the voltage at the idle position. If the throttle position switch turns back on
after the throttle valve has opened, the idle position switch and the throttle position sensor need
to be adjusted.
