CLOSED THROTTLE POSITION SWITCH AND THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR ADJUSTMENT
<Vehicles without TCL>
1.Connect the scan tool to the data link connector. When not using the scan tool, proceed as follows.
(1)Disconnect the connector of the throttle position sensor.
(2)Connect an ohmmeter between terminal 2 (closed throttle position switch) and 1 (sensor ground) by using jumper wires. |
|
2.Insert a feeler gauge with a thickness of 1.4 mm (.0551 in.) between the levers shown in the illustration to a depth of no more than 3 mm (.1181 in.)
NOTE: Inserting the feeler gauge more than 3mm (.1181 in.) will result in incorrect adjustment.
3.When using the scan tool, turn the ignition switch ON. (Engine does not start.) |
|
4.Loosen the throttle position sensor mounting bolt; then turn the throttle position sensor body fully counter clockwise.
5.In this condition, make sure that the closed throttle position switch is ON. (There is continuity between terminals 1 and 2.) |
|
6.Slowly turn the throttle position sensor clockwise until the point at which the idle switch is turned OFF (continuity between terminals 1 and 2 changes to non-continuity) is found.
Tighten the throttle position sensor installation bolt at that position. |
|
7.When not using the scan tool, proceed as follows:
(1)Connect the special tool (test harness set) between the throttle position sensor connectors which have been disconnected. (Connect all terminals taking care not to mistake the terminal No.)
(2)Connect a digital voltmeter between the throttle position sensor terminal 1 (sensor ground) and terminal 3 (sensor output.)
(3)Turn the ignition switch ON (but do not start the engine). |
|
8.Check the throttle position sensor output voltage.
Standard value: 400 - 1,000 mV
9.If there is a deviation from the standard value, check the throttle position sensor and the related harness.
10.Remove the feeler gauge.
11.Switch OFF the ignition switch. |
