THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR SYSTEM
HANDLING NOTE
Do not loosen the screw (throttle
position sensor) "1" except when
changing the throttle position sen-
sor due to failure because it will
cause a drop in engine perfor-
mance.
CHECKING THE COUPLERS AND
LEADS CONNECTION
1. Check:
• Couplers and leads connection
Rust/dust/looseness/short-circuit
→Repair or replace.
CHECKING THE THROTTLE
POSITION SENSOR
1. Inspect:
• Throttle position sensor resis-
tance
Out of specification→Replace.2. Inspect:
• Throttle position sensor variable
resistance
Check that the resistance in in-
creased as the throttle grip is
moved from the full close position
to the full open position.
Out of specification→Replace.
CHANGING AND ADJUSTING THE
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
1. Remove:
• Throttle position sensor coupler
2. Remove:
• Screw (throttle position sensor)
"1"
• Throttle position sensor "2"
Loosen the screw (throttle position
sensor) using the T25 bit.
3. Replace:
• Throttle position sensor
4. Install:
• Throttle position sensor "1"
• Screw (throttle position sensor)
"2"
• Align the projection "b" on the throt-
tle body with the slot "a" in the throt-
tle position sensor.
• Temporarily tighten the screw
(throttle position sensor).
5. Make sure that the throttle grip is
in the fully closed position.
6. Install:
• Throttle position sensor coupler
7. Connect the FI diagnostic tool.
(Refer to "CONNECTING THE FI
DIAGNOSTIC TOOL".)
8. Set the FI diagnostic tool to the di-
agnostic mode, and then select
diagnostic code No. D01. (Refer
to "SETTING THE DIAGNOSTIC
MODE".)
9. Adjust the position of the throttle
position sensor so that the angle
displayed on the LCD of the FI di-
agnostic tool is 12–21°.
10. After adjusting the throttle posi-
tion sensor angle, tighten the
throttle position sensor screw "1".
Tighten the screw (throttle position
sensor) using the T25 bit.

TROUBLESHOOTING METHOD
Engine starting problems, engine
idling speed problems, and medium
and high-speed performance prob-
lems
1. CHECK:
• Refer to "TROUBLESHOOTING"
section in the chapter 3.
2. Connect the FI diagnostic tool.
(Refer to "CONNECTING THE FI
DIAGNOSTIC TOOL".)
3. Check the fault code number.
(Refer to "TROUBLESHOOTING
DETAILS".)
• Check the fault code number that is
displayed on the LCD of the FI diag-
nostic tool.
• Identify the system with the mal-
function.(Refer to "TROUBLE-
SHOOTING DETAILS".)
4. Checking and repair the probable
case of malfunction.
• Fault code No. YES.
Check and repair.
Refer to "TROUBLESHOOTING
DETAILS".
Refer to "SENSOR OPERATION
TABLE".
• Fault code No. NO.
Check each sensor and actuator
in the diagnostic mode.
Refer to "SETTING THE DIAG-
NOSTIC MODE".
Refer to "SENSOR OPERATION
TABLE".
If the sensors or actuators are
damaged, check and, if neces-
sary, repair or replace all faulty
parts.
If the sensors or actuators are not
damaged, check and, if neces-
sary, repair or replace the engine
inner parts.5. Perform ECU reinstatement ac-
tion.
Refer to "Reinstatement method"
of table in "TROUBLESHOOTING
DETAILS".
6. Set the switch on the FI diagnostic
tool sub-wire harness from "OFF"
to "ON", and then check whether
a fault code number is displayed
again.
If other fault code displayed, repeat
steps (2) to (5) until all fault code
number is not displayed.
7. Set the switch on the FI diagnostic
tool sub-wire harness to "OFF",
and then disconnect the FI diag-
nostic tool, FI diagnostic tool sub-
wire harness, and battery. Place
the accessory coupler in its origi-
nal position.
The malfunction history is stored
even if the switch on the FI diagnostic
tool sub-wire harness is set to "OFF".
Erase the malfunction history in the
diagnostic mode. (Refer to "DIAG-
NOSTIC CODE TABLE (Diagnostic
code No. D62)".)
CONNECTING THE FI
DIAGNOSTIC TOOL
1. Connect the following items to the
accessory coupler as shown.
• FI diagnostic tool "1"
• FI diagnostic tool sub-wire har-
ness "2"
• Battery "3"
• Because this vehicle is not
equipped with a battery, a 12 V
battery is required to use the FI di-
agnostic tool.
• Make sure that the switch on the
FI diagnostic tool sub-wire har-
ness is set to "OFF".
• The "POWER" LED (green)
comes on.
CHECKING THE FAULT CODES
1. Set the switch on the FI diagnostic
tool subwire harness to "ON".
When the switch on the FI diagnostic
tool sub-wire harness is set to "ON",
make sure that "Waiting for connec-
tion" is displayed on the LCD of the FI
diagnostic tool.
2. Check:
• Fault code number
• If a malfunction is detected in the
system, the fault code appears on
the LCD of the FI diagnostic tool
and the "WARNING" LED (orange)
comes on.
• To start the engine, set the switch
on the FI diagnostic tool sub-wire
harness to "OFF".
• When the engine is running, fault
code numbers will not be displayed
on the LCD of the FI diagnostic tool
even if a malfunction is detected in
the system. The "WARNING" LED
(orange) comes on.
3. Set the switch on the FI diagnostic
tool subwire harness to "OFF". FI diagnostic tool

the diagnostic mode, the sensor out-
put data can be displayed and the op-
eration of the actuators can be
checked.
1. While pressing the "MODE" but-
ton, set the switch on the FI diag-
nostic tool sub-wire harness to
"ON".
• When the switch on the FI diagnos-
tic tool sub-wire harness is set to
"ON", make sure that "Waiting for
connection" is displayed on the
LCD of the FI diagnostic tool.
• "DIAG" appears on the LCD of the
FI diagnostic tool.
2. Select the diagnostic mode "DI-
AG" by pressing the "UP" button.
3. After selecting "DIAG", press the
"MODE" button.
4. Select the diagnostic code num-
ber corresponding to the fault
code number by pressing the
"UP" and "DOWN" buttons.
• Select the diagnostic code number
corresponding to the fault code
number by pressing the "UP" and
"DOWN" buttons.
• To decrease the selected diagnos-
tic code number, press the "DOWN"
button. Press the "DOWN" button
for 1 second or more to automati-
cally decrease the diagnostic code
numbers.
• To increase the selected diagnostic
code number, press the "UP" but-
ton. Press the "UP" button for 1 sec-
ond or more to automatically
increase the diagnostic code num-
bers.
