Throttle position (TP) sweep inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
  2. Switch the ignition to ON.

    • If the PID reading is out of range, perform the following:
      • Remove the air duct from the throttle valve body
      • Verify that the throttle valve opens when the accelerator pedal is depressed.
        • If the throttle valve opens, inspect the throttle position sensor and related wiring harness.
        • If the throttle valve does not open, inspect the throttle actuator control motor and related wiring harness
  6. Gradually depress the throttle pedal and verify that the PID reading increases accordingly.
    • If the PID reading drops momentarily, inspect the following:
      • Throttle position sensor
  7. Fully depress the throttle pedal and verify that the PID reading is within WOT value. (See PCM INSPECTION [L5] .)
    • If the PID reading is out of range, perform the followings:
      • Remove the air duct from throttle valve body.
      • Verify that the throttle valve opens when throttle pedal is depressed.
        • If the throttle valve opens, inspect the throttle position sensor and related wiring harness.
