STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item
9A: Throttle Position Sensor (main) Mid Opening Learning
Value.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK"(OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item

9A, Throttle position sensor (main) mid opening learning
value.

• Check that it is 4 volts or less.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"(OFF) position.
Q: Is voltage 4 volts or less?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Replace the throttle body ASSY. Then go to Step 17.

STEP 2. Check connector B-23X at throttle actuator control
motor relay for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 17.

STEP 3. Check the throttle actuator control motor relay.
(1) Remove the throttle actuator control motor relay.

(2) Check for continuity between the throttle actuator control

motor relay terminal No. 2 and No. 4.

• There should be continuity (approximately 70 ohms).

(3) Use jumper wires to connect throttle actuator control motor

relay terminal No. 4 to the positive battery terminal and
terminal No. 2 to the negative battery terminal.

(4) Check the continuity between the throttle actuator control

motor relay terminal No. 1 and No. 3 while connecting and
disconnecting the jumper wire at the negative battery
terminal.

• Should be less than 2 ohms. (Negative battery terminal

connected.)

• Should be open loop. (Negative battery terminal discon-

nected.)

(5) Install the throttle actuator control motor relay.
Q: Is the resistance normal?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace the throttle actuator control motor relay.

Then go to Step 17.

STEP 4. Measure the power supply voltage at throttle
actuator control motor relay harness side connector B-23X
(1) Disconnect the connector B-23X and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 3 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts)

present?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Check harness connector A-03 at intermediate

connector for damage, and repair or replace as
required. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector
Inspection

P.00E-2

. If intermediate connector A-03 is

in good condition, repair it because of open circuit or
short circuit to ground between fusible link (5) and
throttle actuator control motor relay connector B-23X
(terminal No. 3). Then go to Step 17.

STEP 5. Measure the power supply voltage at throttle
actuator control motor relay harness side connector
B-23X.
(1) Disconnect the connector B-23X and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 4 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"(OFF) position.
Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts)

present?
YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Check connector B-22X at MFI relay for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Repair harness wire between MFI relay connector

B-22X (terminal No. 1) and throttle actuator control
motor relay connector B-23X (terminal No. 4)
because of open circuit or short circuit to ground.
Then go to Step 17.

NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 17.

STEP 7. Measure the power supply voltage at PCM harness
side connector D-132.
(1) Disconnect the connector D-132 and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 15 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"(OFF) position.
Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts)

present?
YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Repair harness wire between throttle actuator control

motor relay connector B-23X (terminal No. 2) and
PCM connector D-132 (terminal No. 15) because of
open circuit or short circuit to ground. Then go to Step
17.
