THROTTLE VALVE
THROTTLE POSITION
(TP) SENSOR and
THROTTLE ACTUATOR
The throttle body is a single-barrel side draft type. The
lower portion of the throttle valve is heated by engine
coolant from the cylinder head to prevent icing of the
throttle plate. When the engine is cold, the A/C compressor is on, the
transmission is in gear, the brake pedal is pressed, the
power steering load is high, or the alternator is
charging, the ECM/PCM sends signal to the throttle
position to maintain the correct idle speed.
The brake pedal position switch signals the ECM/PCM
when the brake pedal is pressed.
The EPS signals the ECM/PCM when the power steering
load is high.
During deceleration with the throttle valve closed,
current to the injectors is cut off to improve fuel
economy at engine speeds over 1,000 rpm. Fuel cutoff
control also occurs when the engine speed exceeds
6,900 rpm (K20Z3: 8,200 rpm), regardless of the
position of the throttle valve, to protect the engine from
over-revving. When the vehicle is st
opped, the ECM/
PCM cuts the fuel at engine speeds over 5,000 rpm
(K20Z3: 7,700 rpm). On a cold engine, fuel cut occurs at
a lower engine speed.
When the ignition switch is turned to ON (II), the ECM/
PCM grounds PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) which
feeds current to the fuel pump for 2 seconds to
pressurize the fuel system. With the engine running, the
ECM/PCM grounds PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP)
and feeds current to the fuel pump. When the engine is
not running and the ignition is turned to ON (II), the
ECM/PCM cuts ground to PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL
PUMP) which cuts current to the fuel pump.
PGM-FI main relay 1 is energized whenever the ignition
switch is ON (II), to supply battery voltage to the ECM/
PCM, power to the injectors, and power for PGM-FI
main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP). PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL
PUMP) is energized to supply power to the fuel pump
for 2 seconds when the ignition switch is turned to
ON (II), and when the engine is cranking or running.

DTC Troubleshooting
MAF Sensor Circuit Range/
Performance Problem
NOTE:
Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general
troubleshooting information (see page 11-3).
If DTC P1128, P1129, P2228, and/or P2229 are stored at the same time as DTC P0101, troubleshoot those
DTCs first, then recheck for DTC P0101.
1. Check for poor connections or damage to these parts:
PCV hose
Intake air duct
Air cleaner
Purge (PCS) line
Brake booster
Brake booster hose
Go to step 2.
Repair or replace the damaged part(s), then
go to step 17.
2. Check for damage or looseness at the air duct in the air cleaner.
Go to step 3.
Reconnect or replace the air duct in the air
cleaner, then go to step 15.
3. Check for a dirty air cleaner element.
Replace the air cleaner element (see page
11-346), then go to step 15.
Go to step 4. 4. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
5. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
6. Check the MAF SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the
HDS.
Go to step 7.
Go to step 13.
7. Start the engine.
8. Vary the engine speed between 2,000 rpm and 3,000 rpm.
9. Check the MAF SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS.
Go to step 10.
Go to step 13.
10. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (A/T in P or N, M/T in neutral) until the radiator fan
comes on, then let it idle.
11. Test-drive the vehicle for several minutes in the range of these recorded freeze data parameters:
ENGINE S PEED
VSS
MAP SENSOR
MAF SENSOR
12. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0101 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Go to step 13.
If the screen indicates PASSED, intermittent
failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for
poor connections or loose terminals at the MAF
sensor/IAT sensor and the ECM/PCM. If the screen
indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step 11 and
recheck.
Ar e t he par t s OK ?
Is it OK ?Is it dirty? Is t her e about 0.2 gm/ s or 0.5 V ?
Does t he r ead i ng change?
Does t he scr een i nd i cat e F AILE D?

2. Check for vacuum leaks at these parts:
PCV valve
PCV hose
EVAP canister purge valve
Throttle body
Intake manifold
Brake booster
Brake booster hose
Intake air duct
Go to step 3.
Repair or replace the part(s) with leaks, then
go to step 7.
3. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (A/T in P or N, M/T in
neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it
idle.
4. Check for these conditions: Engine coolant temperature (ECT SENSOR 1)above70°C(158°F)
A/T in N, M/T in neutral
All electrical loads off
5. Monitor the ENGINE SPEED in the DATA LIST with the HDS, and hold the engine speed at 2,500 rpm.
Once the engine speed is met, hold the accelerator
pedal steady for more than 10 seconds.
Repeat step 5.
Go to step 6. 6. While holding the engine speed at 2,500 rpm, check
the MAF SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS.
Check the engine valve clearances and adjust
them if needed; K20Z2 engine (see page 6-12),
K20Z3 engine (see page 6-14). If the valve
clearances are OK, replace the injectors (see page
11-219), then go to step 7.
Replace the MAF sensor/IAT sensor (see page
11-224), then go to step 7.
7. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
8. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
9. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see page 11-310).
10. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (A/T in P or N, M/T in
neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it
idle.
11. Test-drive under these conditions: Engine coolant temperature (ECT SENSOR 1)above70°C(158°F)
A/TinD,M/Tin4th
Drive at a steady speed between 24 120 km/h (15 75 mph) for 15 minutes
NOTE: DTC P0171 and/or P0172 may take up to
80 minutes of test driving to set. Using the HDS,
monitor or the air fuel feed back average (AF FB
AVE). If the AF FB AVE stays within 0.80 1.25,
there is no problem at this time.
12. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.
Go to step 1.
Troubleshooting is complete. If any other
Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the
indicated DTC’s troubleshooting.
