DESCRIPTION

The throttle actuator is operated by the ECM, and opens and closes the throttle valve using gears. The 
opening angle of the throttle valve is detected by the Throttle Position (TP) sensor, which is mounted on 
the throttle body. The TP sensor provides feedback to the ECM in order that it can control the throttle 
actuator, and therefore the throttle valve, appropriately in response to driver inputs.
HINT:
This ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) does not use a throttle cable.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM determines that there is a malfunction in the ETCS when the throttle valve remains at a fixed 
angle despite a high drive current from the ECM. The ECM illuminates the MIL and sets a DTC.
If the malfunction is not repaired successfully, a DTC is set when the accelerator pedal is fully depressed 
and released quickly (to fully open and close the throttle valve) after the engine is next started.

TYPICAL MALFUNCTION THRESHOLDS

P2111 (Throttle actuator stuck open):

P2112 (Throttle actuator stuck closed):

FAIL-SAFE

When either of these DTCs, as well as other DTCs relating to ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) 
malfunctions, is set, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. During fail-safe mode, the ECM cuts the current to 
the throttle actuator off, and the throttle valve is returned to a 6

° throttle angle by the return spring. The 

ECM then adjusts the engine output by controlling the fuel injection (intermittent fuel-cut) and ignition 
timing, in accordance with the accelerator pedal opening angle, to allow the vehicle to continue at a 
minimal speed.
If the accelerator pedal is depressed firmly and gently, the vehicle can be driven slowly.
Fail-safe mode continues until a pass condition is detected, and the ignition switch is then turned OFF.

WIRING DIAGRAM

Refer to DTC P2102 (See page 

ES-283

).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
Read freeze frame data using an intelligent tester. Freeze frame data record the engine condition when 
malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was 
moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other 
data, from the time the malfunction occurred.

(a) Connect an intelligent tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(c) Turn the tester ON.
(d) Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / 

ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES.

(e) Read DTCs.

Result

HINT:
If any DTCs other than P2111 or P2112 are output, 
troubleshoot those DTCs first.

DESCRIPTION

The ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) has a dedicated power supply circuit. The voltage (+BM) 
is monitored and when it is low (less than 4 V), the ECM determines that there is a malfunction in the 
ETCS and cuts off the current to the throttle actuator.
When the voltage becomes unstable, the ETCS itself becomes unstable. For this reason, when the 
voltage is low, the current to the throttle actuator is cut. If repairs are made and the system returns to 
normal, turn the ignition switch OFF. The ECM then allows the current to flow to the throttle actuator so 
that it can be restarted.
HINT:
The ETCS does not use a throttle cable.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM monitors the battery supply voltage applied to the throttle actuator.
When the power supply voltage (+BM) drops to below 4 V for 0.8 seconds or more, the ECM interprets 
this as an open in the power supply circuit (+BM). The ECM illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
If the malfunction is not repaired successfully, the DTC is set 5 seconds after the engine is next started.
