Ignition off
Check the throttle unit and engine control module (ECM) connectors. Check for contact resistance and oxidation.
Check the resistance value of the damper motor winding in the throttle unit. Take readings between throttle unit terminals #1 and #4 (component side). Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit.

NOTE:
The resistance of the motor winding in the damper motor is very low.

Check the damper motor (+) and (-) cable. Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage.

Check between:
- Engine control module (ECM) terminal #A74 (#B14) and throttle unit terminal #4 (cable harness side)
- Engine control module (ECM) terminal #A75 (#B15) and throttle unit terminal #1 (cable harness side).
Also check the damper motor cables (+) and (-). Check for a short-circuit to each other.

Check that the shutter in the throttle unit is not blocked or sticking. Clean as necessary.

Remedy as necessary.
