STEP 3. Measure the backup power supply voltage at PCM 
harness side connector D-133.
(1) Disconnect the PCM connector D-133 and measure at the 

harness side.

(2) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 58 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts) 

present?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Check 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 is in good condition, 

repair harness wire between fusible link (5) and PCM 
connector D-133 (terminal No. 58) because of open 
circuit or short circuit to ground. Then go to Step 6.

STEP 4. Check connector D-133 at PCM for damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Check 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 is in good condition, 

repair harness wire between battery and PCM 
connector D-133 (terminal No. 58) because of 
harness damage. Then go to Step 6.

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

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 6.

STEP 5. Check connector D-133 at PCM for damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Replace the PCM. Then go to Step 6.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Using scan tool MB991502, read the diagnostic 
trouble code (DTC).

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991502, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991502.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991502 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Read the DTC.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P1603 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO :  The inspection is complete.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES

13Ac-572

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• Controls the current that is applied from the PCM 

(terminals No. 133, No. 141) to the throttle actua-
tor control motor (terminals No. 5, No. 6).

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• PCM varies the direction and the amperage of 

the current that is applied to the throttle actuator 
control motor in order to control the opening of 
the throttle valve.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Condition

• Battery positive voltage is higher than 8.3 volts.

Judgement Criteria

• Throttle actuator control motor current should be 

0.1 amperes or less for 0.72 seconds.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely 
causes for this code to be set are:)

• Throttle actuator control motor failed or malad-

justed.

• Open or shorted throttle actuator control motor 

circuit, or loose connector.

• PCM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)

STEP 1. Check connector B-05 at throttle actuator control 
motor for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 8.
