8ZR-FXE ENGINE CONTROL SFI SYSTEM P211172 Throttle Actuator "A" Control System Actuator Stuck Open P211173 Throttle Actuator "A" Control System Actuator Stuck Closed
DESCRIPTION
The throttle actuator is operated by the ECM and opens and closes the throttle valve using gears. The opening angle of the throttle valve is detected by the throttle position sensor, which is built into the throttle body assembly. The throttle position sensor provides feedback to the ECM. This feedback allows the ECM to appropriately control the throttle actuator and monitor the throttle opening angle as the ECM responds to a request from the hybrid system.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
If throttle valve remains at a certain angle despite a high drive current from the ECM, the ECM determines that there is a malfunction in the ETCS, illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
- HINT:
- ·
After repair has been completed, clear the DTC and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.
·When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the "CLEAR PERMANENT DTC" procedure.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Turn the power switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the power switch on (IG) [A].
Turn the GTS on.
Put the engine in Inspection Mode (Maintenance Mode).
Start the engine and depress and release the accelerator pedal quickly (to open and close the throttle valve) [B].
- HINT:
-
During charge control, the engine speed is set at idle. Therefore, the engine speed will not increase when the accelerator pedal is depressed. In this case, perform step [B] after charge control has completed.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [C].
Read the pending DTCs.
- HINT:
- ·
If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
·If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P211172 or P211173.
Check the DTC judgment result.
| GTS Display | Description |
|---|---|
| NORMAL | ·
DTC judgment completed ·
System normal |
| ABNORMAL | ·
DTC judgment completed ·
System abnormal |
| INCOMPLETE | ·
DTC judgment not completed ·
Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions |
- HINT:
- ·
If the judgment result is NORMAL, the system is normal.
·If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system is malfunctioning.
·[A] to [C]: Normal judgment procedure.
The normal judgment procedure is used to complete DTC judgment and also used when clearing permanent DTCs.
·When clearing the permanent DTCs, do not disconnect the cable from the auxiliary battery terminal or attempt to clear the DTCs during this procedure, as doing so will clear the universal trip and normal judgment histories.
FAIL-SAFE
When these DTCs or other DTCs relating to Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS) malfunctions are stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. During fail-safe mode, the ECM cuts the current to the throttle actuator, and the throttle valve is returned to a 5.5° throttle valve opening angle by the return spring. The ECM stops the engine and the vehicle can be driven using solely the hybrid system. If the accelerator pedal is depressed firmly and gently, the vehicle can be driven slowly.
Fail-safe mode continues until a pass condition is detected, and the power switch is then turned off.
WIRING DIAGRAM
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
- NOTICE:
- ·
Vehicle Control History may be stored in the hybrid vehicle control ECU if the engine is malfunctioning. Certain vehicle condition information is recorded when Vehicle Control History is stored. Reading the vehicle conditions recorded in both the Freeze Frame Data and Vehicle Control History can be useful for troubleshooting.
(Select Powertrain in Health Check and then check the time stamp data.)
·If any "Engine Malfunction" Vehicle Control History item has been stored in the hybrid vehicle control ECU, make sure to clear it. However, as all Vehicle Control History items are cleared simultaneously, if any Vehicle Control History items other than "Engine Malfunction" are stored, make sure to perform any troubleshooting for them before clearing Vehicle Control History.
- HINT:
- ·
Refer to "Data List / Active Test" [Throttle Position Sensor No.1 Voltage, Throttle Position Sensor No.2 Voltage, Throttle Position Command, Throttle Motor Current, Throttle Motor Duty Ratio (Open) and Throttle Motor Duty Ratio (Close)].
·Read Freeze Frame Data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
