DTC Diagnosis Procedure

  1. CHECK DTC PRIORITY 

    If DTC P2101 is displayed with DTC P2100 or P2119, first perform the confirmation procedure for DTC P2100 or P2119.

    Is applicable DTC detected?

    YES>>

    Perform diagnosis of applicable.

    NO>>

    GO TO 2.

  2. CHECK THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR RELAY INPUT SIGNAL 

    Check the voltage between ECM harness connector terminals as per the following conditions.

    ECM Condition Voltage
    (Approx.)
    + -
    Connector Terminal Connector Terminal
    F142 139 E152 204 Ignition switch: ON → OFF 0 - 1.0 V → Battery voltage → 0 V
    Ignition switch: ON 0 - 1.0 V

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES>>

    GO TO 5.

    NO>>

    GO TO 3.

  3. CHECK THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR RELAY INPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    3. Disconnect IPDM E/R harness connector.
    4. Check the continuity between ECM harness connector and IPDM E/R harness connector.
      + - Continuity
      ECM IPDM E/R
      Connector Terminal Connector Terminal
      F142 139 E124 65 Existed
    5. Also check harness for short to ground and to power.

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES>>

    GO TO 4.

    NO>>

    Repair or replace error-detected parts.

  4. CHECK THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR RELAY POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT 
    1. Check the continuity between ECM harness connector and IPDM E/R harness connector.
      + - Continuity
      ECM IPDM E/R
      Connector Terminal Connector Terminal
      F142 95 E123 57 Existed
    2. Also check harness for short to ground.

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES>>

    Perform the trouble diagnosis for power supply circuit.

    NO>>

    Repair or replace error-detected parts.

  5. CHECK THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR (BANK 1) OUTPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect electric throttle control actuator (bank 1) harness connector.
    3. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    4. Check the continuity between electric throttle control actuator (bank 1) harness connector and ECM harness connector.

    5. Also check harness for short to ground and to power.

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES>>

    GO TO 6.

    NO>>

    Repair or replace error-detected parts.

  6. CHECK THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR (BANK 2) OUTPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect electric throttle control actuator (bank 2) harness connector.
    3. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    4. Check the continuity between electric throttle control actuator (bank 2) harness connector and ECM harness connector.

      F119 2 F142 150 Existed
      149 Not existed
      1 150 Not existed
      149 Existed
    5. Also check harness for short to ground and to power.

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES>>

    GO TO 7.

    NO>>

    Repair or replace error-detected parts.

  7. CHECK ELECTRIC THROTTLE CONTROL ACTUATOR VISUALLY 
    1. Remove the intake air duct. Refer to AIR CLEANER AND AIR DUCT : Exploded View .
    2. Check if foreign matter is caught between the throttle valve and the housing.

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES>>

    GO TO 8.

    NO>>

    Remove the foreign matter and clean the electric throttle control actuator inside, then perform throttle valve closed position learning. Refer to Work Procedure .

  8. CHECK THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR (BANK 1) AND (BANK 2) 

    Check the throttle control motor (bank 1) and (bank 2). Refer to Component Inspection . Is the inspection result normal?

    YES>>

    INSPECTION END

    NO>>

    Replace malfunctioning electric throttle control actuator. Refer to INTAKE MANIFOLD COLLECTOR : Exploded View .
