Electronic Throttle Actuator Position Sensor: Testing and Inspection

INSPECTION

INSPECT SUB-THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
(a) Set the sub-throttle valve to fully closed position.





(b) Insert a 0.41 mm (0.016 in.) or 0.48 mm (0.019 in.) feeler gauge between the throttle stop screw and throttle valve gear.

Ohmmeter Connection:

Reference:

(c) Using an ohmmeter measure the resistance between terminals.
9. NECESSARY, ADJUST SUB-THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR





(a) Loosen the 2 set screws of the sensor.
(b) Set the sub-throttle valve to fully closed position.





(c) Insert a 0.45 mm (0.018 in.) feeler gauge, between the throttle stop screw and throttle valve gear.





(d) Connect the tester probe of an ohmmeter to the terminals IDL and E2 of the sensor.
(e) Gradually turn the sensor clockwise until the ohmmeter deflects, and secure it with the 2 set screws.

Ohmmeter Connection:

Reference:

(f) Recheck the continuity between terminals IDL and E2.
