1 Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Diagnostic Trouble Code
Check
1) Check PCM for DTC.
Is there a DTC related to throttle position sensor?Check and repair
TP sensor refer-
ring to Section 6-1.Go to Step 2.
2 Throttle Valve Opening Signal Circuit Check
1) Turn ignition switch ON.
2) Check voltage between terminal E61-4 of PCM connector
connected and ground.
Does voltage vary linearly according to throttle opening?Throttle valve
opening signal cir-
cuit is OK.Go to Step 3.
3 Supply Voltage Check
1) Disconnect connector from PCM with ignition switch OFF.
2) Check for proper connection to PCM at terminal E61-4.
3) If OK, connect “BLU” wire terminal of main relay to ground
with service wire.
4) Turn ignition switch ON.
5) Check voltage between E61-4 of PCM connector and
ground.
Is it 10 – 14 V?Check TP sensor
and circuits refer-
ring to Section 6-1.
If OK, substitute a
known-good PCM
and recheck.Check “GRY”
wire for open
and short. If OK,
proceed to
cruise control
module power
and ground cir-
cuits check.

Cruise Control Module and Its Circuit Inspection
VOLTAGE CHECK
Check for input or output voltage of control module (voltage between each circuit and body ground) with cruise
control module connector connected.CAUTION:
Cruise control module can not be checked by itself. It is strictly prohibited to connect voltmeter or
ohmmeter to cruise control module with coupler disconnected from it.
