NOTICE:
When a malfunction is detected, the throttle valve is locked at a certain opening angle. Also, the
whole electronically controlled throttle operation is cancelled until the system returns to normal and
the ignition switch is turned OFF.
HINT:
After confirming DTCs, use the hand±held tester to confirm the throttle valve opening percentage and
closed throttle position switch condition.
The THROTTLE POS means VTA1 signal as well as the THROTTLE POS #2 for the VTA2 signal.

If different DTCs related to different systems that have terminal E2 as the ground terminal are output
simultaneously, terminal E2 may be open.

when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for determining whether the vehicle
was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air±fuel ratio was lean or rich, etc. at
the time of the malfunction.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
A thermistor is built in the engine coolant temperature sensor and changes the resistance value according
to the engine coolant temperature.
The structure of the sensor and connection to the ECM is the same as those of the intake air temperature
sensor.
If the ECM detects the DTC ºP0115, P0117 or P0118º, it operates the fail±safe functions in which the engine
coolant temperature is assumed to be 80C (176F).
