Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The engine control module (ECM) controls the throttle valve by applying a varying voltage to the control circuits of the throttle actuator control (TAC) motor. The ECM monitors the duty cycle that is required to actuate the throttle valve. The ECM monitors the throttle position (TP) sensors 1 and 2 to determine the actual throttle valve position. If the ECM detects that the throttle position is NOT within a predetermined range when commanded to the rest position, this DTC sets.
