Potential problem source(s):

• Defect in wiring harness between throttle-valve actuator motor and DME
• Throttle-valve sensor defective
• AD converter input in DME defective

Terminal condition: Terminal 15

Voltage condition:

• Onboard electrical system voltage between 9 V and 16 V

Temperature condition:

• Engine warmed to normal temp, above 80 °C

Time condition:

• 30 sec. after Terminal 15 on

Other conditions:

• Engine on
• Vehicle velocity = 0 km/h
