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 Check throttle control motor.
PREPARATION:
Disconnect the throttle control motor and sensor connector.
CHECK:
Measure the resistance between terminals of the throttle con-
trol motor.

DTC P2111 Throttle Actuator Control System
±Stuck Open
DTC P2112 Throttle Actuator Control System
±Stuck Closed
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The throttle motor is operated by the ECM. It opens and closes the throttle valve using gears. The opening
angle of the throttle valve is detected by the throttle position sensor, which is mounted on the throttle body.
The throttle position sensor provides feedback to the ECM to control the throttle motor and set the throttle
valve angle in response to driver input.
HINT:
This Electrical Throttle Control System (ETCS) does not use a throttle cable.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM concludes that there is a malfunction of the ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) when the
throttle valve remains at a fixed angle despite high drive current from the ECM. The ECM will turn 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.

DTC P2118 Throttle Actuator Control Motor Current
Range/Performance
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS) has a dedicated power supply circuit. The voltage (+BM) is
monitored and when the voltage is low (less than 4V), the ECM concludes that the ETCS has a fault and
current to the throttle control motor is cut.
When the voltage becomes unstable, the ETCS itself becomes unstable. For this reason, when the voltage
is low, the current to the motor is cut. If repairs are made and the system has returned to normal, turn the
ignition switch OFF. The ECM then allows current to flow to the motor and the motor can be restarted.
HINT:
This Electrical Throttle Control System (ETCS) does not use a throttle cable.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM monitors the battery supply voltage applied to the electronic throttle motor +BM. When the power
supply voltage drops below the threshold, the ECM concludes that the power supply has an open circuit.
