1GR-FE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM: SFI SYSTEM: P0657: Actuator Supply Voltage Circuit / Open
P0657 - Actuator Supply Voltage Circuit / Open
DESCRIPTION
The ECM monitors the output voltage to the throttle actuator. This self-check ensures that the ECM is functioning properly. The output voltage usually is 0 V when the ignition switch is turned off. If the output voltage is 7 V or more when the ignition switch is turned off, the ECM will illuminate the MIL and set a DTC when the ignition switch is turned to ON.
