DTC P2119 Throttle Actuator Control Throttle Body
Range/Performance
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The Electric Throttle Control System (ETCS) is composed of a throttle motor that operates the throttle valve,
a throttle position sensor that detects the opening angle of the throttle valve, an accelerator pedal position
sensor that detects the accelerator pedal position, and the ECM that controls the ETCS system.
The ECM operates the throttle motor to position the throttle valve for proper response to driver inputs. The
throttle position sensor, mounted on the throttle body, detects the opening angle of the throttle valve and
provides this signal to the ECM so that the ECM can regulate the throttle motor.

Throttle body
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM determines the ºactualº throttle angle based on the throttle position sensor signal. The ºactualº
throttle position is compared to the ºtargetº throttle position commanded by the ECM. If the difference of
these two values exceeds a specified limit, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the ETCS (Electronic Throttle
Control System). The ECM turns on the MIL and a DTC is set.
FAIL SAFE
If the ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) has a malfunction, the ECM cuts off current to the throttle
control motor. The throttle control valve returns to a predetermined opening angle (approximately 16°) by
the force of the return spring. The ECM then adjusts the engine output by controlling the fuel infection (inter-
mittent fuel±cut) and ignition timing in accordance with the accelerator pedal opening angle to enable the
vehicle to continue at a minimum speed.
If the accelerator pedal is depressed firmly and slowly, the vehicle can be driven slowly.
If a ºpassº condition is detected and then the ignition switch is turned OFF, the fail±safe operation will stop
and the system will return to normal condition.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
HINT:

This electrical throttle control system does not use a throttle cable.

This accelerator pedal position sensor is a non±contact type.
The accelerator pedal position sensor is mounted in the accelerator pedal to detect the angle of the accelera-
tor pedal. This sensor is electronically controlled and uses Hall±effect elements.
In the accelerator pedal position sensor, the voltage applied to terminals VPA and VPA2 of the ECM changes
between 0 V and 5 V in proportion to the angle of the accelerator pedal. The VPA is a signal to indicate the
actual accelerator pedal angle and is used for the engine control. VPA2 is used to detect malfunctions of
the sensor itself.
The ECM judges the current angle of the accelerator pedal from these signals input from terminals VPA and
VPA2, and the ECM controls the throttle motor based on these signals.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
When VPA or VPA2 deviates from the standard, or the difference between the voltage outputs of the two
sensors is less than threshold, the ECM concludes that there is a defect in the accelerator pedal position
sensor. The ECM turns on the MIL and a DTC is set.
Example:
When the voltage output of the VPA is below 0.2 V or exceeds 4.8 V.
FAIL SAFE
The accelerator pedal position sensor has two (main and sub) sensor circuits. If a malfunction occurs in ei-
ther of the sensor circuits, the ECM detects the abnormal signal voltage difference between the two sensor
circuits and switches to limp mode. In limp mode, the remaining circuit is used to calculate the accelerator
pedal opening to allow the vehicle to continue driving.
If both circuits malfunction, the ECM regards the opening angle of the accelerator pedal to be fully closed.
In this case, the throttle valve will remain closed as if the engine is idling.
If a ºpassº condition is detected and then the ignition switch is turned OFF, the fail±safe operation will stop
and the system will return to normal condition.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when
a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was
running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air±fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other
data from the time when a malfunction occurred.
1 Connect hand±held tester, and read the voltage for accelerator pedal position
sensor data.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the hand±held tes-
ter main switch ON.
(c) Enter the following menu: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED
OBD II / DATA LIST / ETCS / ACCEL POS #1 and ACCEL
POS #2.
CHECK:
Read the voltage for the accelerator pedal position sensor data.
