MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-849

STEP 5. Check for short circuit to ground and harness 
damage between throttle actuator control motor connector 
B-06 (terminal No. 2) and PCM connector B-23 (terminal 
No. 141).

Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 7.

13A-850

STEP 6. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic 
trouble code (DTC).

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) After the DTC has been deleted, read the DTC again.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"(OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P2101 set?

YES : Replace the PCM. Then go to Step 7.
NO :  It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

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

P.00-6

.

STEP 7. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic 
trouble code (DTC).

(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) After the DTC has been deleted, read the DTC again.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"(OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P2101 set?

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

DTC P2102: Throttle Actuator Control Motor Circuit (shorted Low)

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• Controls the current that is applied from the PCM 

(terminals No. 147, No. 141) to the throttle actua-
tor control motor (terminals No. 1, No. 2).

.

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.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
Motor intelligent power device detects shorted-low 

malfunction.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION
Continuous

.

MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS (Other 
monitor and Sensor)

Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC stored 

in memory for the item monitored below)

• Not applicable

Sensor (The sensor below is determined to be 

normal)

• Not applicable

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Condition

• Battery positive voltage is higher than 8.3 volts.

Judgement Criteria

• Throttle actuator control motor current is 12 

amperes or higher for 0.8 second.

.

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
None.

.

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

• Throttle actuator control motor failed.

• Shorted throttle actuator control motor circuit or 

connector damage.

• PCM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

STEP 1. Check harness connector B-06 at throttle actuator 
control motor for damage.

Q: Is the harness 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 7.
