ELECTRIC THROTTLE VALVE (EDK) CONTROL
• The throttle valve assembly of the M62 TU is an
electric throttle valve (EDK) controlled by an inte-
gral EML function of the ME 7.2.
• The throttle plate is positioned by a gear reduction
DC motor drive.
• The motor is controlled by proportionately
switched high/low PWM signals at a basic fre-
quency of 2000 Hz.
• Engine idle speed control is a function of the EDK.
Therefore, the M62 TU does not require a separate
idle control valve.

EDK ADAPTATION
PROCEDURE:
When a replacement EDK
is installed the adaptation
values of the previous EDK
must be cleared from the
ME 7.2 control module.
1. From the Service
Function Menu of the
DIS/MoDiC, clear
adaptation values.
2. Switch the ignition OFF
for 10 seconds.
3. Switch the ignition ON
(KL 15). At approxi-
mately 30 seconds the
EDK is briefly activated
allowing the ME 7.2 to
“electrically learn” the
new component.
This procedure is also necessary after replacing an ME 7.2 control module. However, the
adaptation values do not require clearing since they have not yet been established.
