P1122 ELECTRIC THROTTLE CONTROL FUNCTION

P1122 ELECTRIC THROTTLE CONTROL FUNCTION

Description

INFOID:0000000001089410

Electric throttle control actuator consists of throttle control motor, throttle position sensor, etc.
The throttle control motor is operated by the ECM and it opens and closes the throttle valve.
The current opening angle of the throttle valve is detected by the throttle position sensor and it provides feed-
back to the ECM to control the throttle control motor to make the throttle valve opening angle properly in
response to driving condition.

DTC DETECTION LOGIC

NOTE:
If DTC P1122 is displayed with DTC P1121 or P1126, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P1121
or P1126. Refer to 

EC-838, "DTC Logic"

 or 

EC-832, "DTC Logic"

.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

PRECONDITIONING

If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch OFF and wait at
least 10 seconds before conducting the next test.

3.

Check DTC.

Is DTC detected?

YES

>> Go to 

EC-834, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO

>> INSPECTION END
