Diagnosis Of Throttle Control System
Diagnosis of Accelerator Pedal Angle
This function has to calculate the standardized accelerator pedal angle from both of the potentiometer voltages of the pedal position sensor.
The characteristic curve of potentiometer number 2 is half as steep as the characteristic curve of potentiometer number 1.
Possible faults:
- potentiometer number 1 signal or potentiometer number 2 signal are out of work range
- potentiometer number 1 signal to potentiometer number 2 signal are not plausible.
Diagnosis of Accelerator Pedal - Throttle Control System
Diagnosis of Throttle Potentiometer - Throttle Control System
The throttle body consists of two potentiometers (reversed voltage logic). During the first start, the potentiometer characteristics are adapted and stored. The diagnostic monitors the corrected values of potentiometer 1 and 2. In the case of a higher difference than a threshold value both signals are compared to the engine load to determine and disable the faulty one. A fault code will be stored.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
