13A-181

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 14: 
Throttle Position Sensor.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item 

14, Throttle Position Sensor.

• With the throttle valve in the idle position, voltage should 

be between 0.535 and 0.735 volt.

• With the throttle valve in the full-open position, voltage 

should be between 4.5 and 5.5 volts.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

P.00-6

.

NO :  Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check connector B-07 at throttle position sensor 
for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 11.

STEP 3. Measure the sensor supply voltage at throttle 
position sensor harness side connector B-07.
(1) Disconnect the connector B-07 and measure at the harness 

side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 4 and ground.

• Voltage should be between 4.8 and 5.2 volts.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage between 4.8 and 5.2 volts?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check connector C-60 at ECM <M/T> or connector 
C-54 at PCM <A/T> for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

STEP 5. Check for open circuit and short circuit to ground 
between throttle position sensor connector B-07 (terminal 
No. 3) and ECM connector C-60 (terminal No. 81) <M/T> or 
PCM connector C-54 (terminal No. 46) <A/T>.
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Replace the ECM or PCM. Then go to Step 11.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 11.
