Inspection Procedure

HINT:

Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. 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.

  1. CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P2119) 
    1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
    3. Turn the tester on.
    4. Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES.
    5. Read DTCs.

      Result: 

      DTC OUTPUT

      Display (DTC Output) Proceed To
      P2119 A
      P2119 and other DTCs B

      HINT:

      If any DTCs other than P2119 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

    1. B: GO TO DTC CHART (SEE  DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART  ) 
    2. A: Go to Next Step. 
  2. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (DTC P2119) 
    1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
    3. Turn the tester on.
    4. Clear DTCs (see DTC CHECK/CLEAR  ).
    5. Allow the engine to idle for 15 seconds.
      CAUTION: Perform the steps (f) and (g) below with great care. Failure to do so may result in the vehicle unexpectedly rolling away.

    7. While depressing the brake pedal securely, fully depress the accelerator pedal for 5 seconds.
    8. Select the following menu items on the tester: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES.
    9. Read DTCs.

    HINT:

    The voltage output of the throttle position sensor can be checked during step (g) using the hand-held tester. Variations in the voltage output indicate that the throttle actuator is in operation. To check the voltage output using the hand-held tester, select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / PRIMARY / THROTTLE POS #1.

    OK: No DTC output. 

    1. NG: REPLACE THROTTLE W/MOTOR BODY ASSY (SEE  REPLACEMENT  )
