P1238, P2119 ELECTRIC THROTTLE CONTROL ACTUATOR

Description

Electric throttle control actuator consists of throttle control motor, throttle position sensor, etc.
The throttle control motor is operated by the ECM and it opens and closes the throttle valve.
The throttle position sensor detects the throttle valve position, and sends the voltage signal to the ECM. The
ECM judges the current opening angle of the throttle valve from this signal and opens/closes the throttle valve in response to driving conditions via the throttle control motor.

Diagnosis Procedure


1. CHECK ELECTRIC THROTTLE CONTROL ACTUATOR VISUALLY

1.Turn ignition switch OFF.
2.Remove the intake air duct. Exploded View.





3.Check that no foreign matter is caught between the throttle valve (1) and the housing.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 2.
NO- Remove the foreign matter and clean the electric throttle control actuator inside, and then perform throttle valve closed position learning. Refer to {LINK_TO_MANY:0000000007515437}{LINK_TO_MANY:0000000007515438}{LINK_TO_MANY:0000000007515439}{LINK_TO_MANY:0000000007515440}{LINK_TO_MANY:0000000007515441}, "THROTTLE
VALVE CLOSED POSITION LEARNING : Special
