Circuit/System Description

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

The throttle actuator control (TAC) system uses two accelerator pedal position (APP) sensors to monitor the accelerator pedal position. The sensors 1 and 2 are located within the pedal control assembly. Each sensor has a 5-volt reference circuit, a low reference circuit, and a signal circuit.

Two processors are also used to monitor the TAC system data. Both processors are located within the engine control module (ECM). Each signal circuit provides both processors with a signal voltage proportional to pedal movement. The processors share the monitor data to verify that the indicated APP calculation is correct.
