Description and operation

Description

The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) System consists of a throttle body with an integrated control motor and throttle position sensor (TPS). Instead of the traditional throttle cable, an Accelerator Position Sensor (APS) is used to receive driver input. The ECM uses the APS signal to calculate the target throttle angle; the position of the throttle is then adjusted via ECM control of the ETC motor. The TPS signal is used to provide feedback regarding throttle position to the ECM. Using ETC, precise control over throttle position is possible; the need for external cruise control modules/cables is eliminated.

Inspection

Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)

1.	Connect the KDS/GDS on the Data Link Connector (DLC).

2.

Start the engine and measure the output voltage of TPS 1 and 2 at C.T. and W.O.T. [Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)] Throttle angle(°) Output Voltage (V) [Vref=5V] TPS1 TPS2 0 0.5 4.5 10 0.96 4.05 20 1.41 3.59 30 1.87 3.14 40 2.32 2.68 50 2.78 2.23 60 3.23 1.77 70 3.69 1.32 80 4.14 0.86 90 4.6 0.41 98 4.65 0.35 C.T (0) 0.5 4.5 W.O.T (86) 4.41 0.59

ETC Motor

1.	Switch "OFF" the ignition.

2.	Disconnect the ETC module connector.

3.	Measure resistance between the ETC module terminals 1 and 2.

4.	Check that the resistance is within the specification. Specification: 0.3 - 100 Ω [20°C (68 °F)]

Removal

1.	Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal.

2.	Remove the air cleaner assembly. (Refer to Intake And Exhaust System - "Air Cleaner")

3.	Disconnect the ETC module connector (A).

4.	Disconnect the vapor hose (B).

5.	Remove the installation bolts, and then remove the ETC module (C) from the engine. Electronic throttle body mounting bolt : 7.8 - 9.8 N.m (0.8 - 1.0 kgf.m, 5.8 - 7.2 lb-ft)

Installation

• Install the component with the specified torques. • Note that internal damage may occur when the component is dropped. If the component has been dropped, inspect before installing.

1.	Installation is reverse of removal.

Adjustment

ETC module learning procedure

Be sure to perform the ETC module learning procedure when replacing or reinstalling the ETC module.

1.	Wait for 1 minute with the ignition switch ON.

2.	Start the engine and keep it idle for 15 minutes.

3.	Waif for 1 minute with the ignition switch OFF.

4.	Restart the engine, and check that the idle speed is stable. If the ETC module learning procedure is not performed after replacing or reinstalling the ETC module, MIL illumination with DTCs may occur.

Troubleshooting

Fail-Safe Mode

Item	Fail-Safe
ETC Motor	Throttle valve stuck at 5°
TPS	TPS 1 fault	ECM looks at TPS2
	TPS 2 fault	ECM looks at TPS1
	TPS 1,2 fault	Throttle valve stuck at 5°
APS	APS 1 fault	ECM looks at APS 2
	APS 2 fault	ECM looks at APS 1
	APS 1,2 fault	Throttle valve stuck at 5°

When throttle value is stuck at 5°, engine speed is limited at below 1,500rpm and vehicle speed at maximum 40 ~ 50 km/h (25 ~ 31 mph)
