Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information

Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information

Condition




Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) ECM-914F is stored if the ignition has been left on for 30 seconds and the engine control module (ECM) has been unable to adapt the throttle unit. This is because the programmed parameter for the stop position in the throttle position (TP) sensor has been exceeded. Adaptation is usually carried out to ensure that the throttle unit parameters are within the programmed values that are stored in the engine control module (ECM). If other diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are stored, these must be remedied first. These may have caused the adaptation to fail.

Substitute value
- The engine control module (ECM) uses parameters from previous successful adaptations
- The engine control module (ECM) shuts down the supply to the throttle unit damper motor. The throttle will set itself to the return position.

Possible source

Faulty signal:
- The throttle is sticking or is blocked (oil film, dust etc.)
- Contact resistance or oxidation in the terminals between the engine control module (ECM) and the throttle unit
- Defective throttle unit.

Fault symptom[s]
- Poor performance.
