General Information: General Description

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

The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system consists of the throttle body, Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) 1 & 2 and Accelerator Position Sensor (APS) 1 & 2. TPS 1 & 2 are sharing the same source voltage and ground. The throttle valve opening is control by throttle motor which is controlled by Engine Control Module (PCM). The opposite position indicator shows inverted signal characteristics. TPS 1 output voltage increases smoothly in proportion with the throttle valve opening angle after starting. TPS 2 output voltage decreases in inverse proportion with the throttle valve opening angle after starting. TPS provides feedback to the PCM to control the throttle motor in order to control the throttle valve opening angle properly in response to the driving condition.
