Diagnostic Fault Information

Circuit/System Description

The engine control module (ECM) controls the throttle valve by applying a varying voltage to the control circuits of the throttle actuator control

(TAC) motor. The ECM monitors the duty cycle that is required to actuate the throttle valve. The ECM monitors the throttle position (TP) sensors 1

and 2 to determine the actual throttle valve position.

Conditions for Running the DTC

P1516 and P2101

* DTC P0606 and P1682 is not set.

* The run/crank or powertrain relay voltage is greater than 6 V and reduced power is not active.

* The engine is running or the following conditions are met:

- The engine is not running.

- The ignition voltage is greater than 11 V.

- The TAC system is not in the Battery Saver mode.

- The ECM is commanding the throttle.
