DTC P2111 Throttle Actuator Control System - Stuck Open |
DTC P2112 Throttle Actuator Control System - 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 (TP) sensor, which is mounted on the throttle body. The TP sensor provides feedback to the ECM so that it can control the throttle actuator (throttle valve) appropriately in response to driver inputs.- HINT:
- This ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) does not use a throttle cable.
DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
P2111 | The throttle actuator does not close when signaled by the ECM (1 trip detection logic). |
|
P2112 | The throttle actuator does not open when signaled by the ECM (1 trip detection logic). |
|
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM determines that there is a malfunction in the ETCS when the throttle valve remains at a fixed angle despite a high drive current from the ECM. The ECM illuminates the MIL and stores DTC(s).If the malfunction is not repaired successfully, a DTC is stored when the accelerator pedal is fully depressed and released quickly (to fully open and close the throttle valve) after the engine is next started.
FAIL-SAFE
When either of these DTCs, or other DTCs relating to ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) 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 7° throttle angle by the return spring. The ECM then adjusts the engine output by controlling the fuel injection (intermittent fuel cut) and ignition timing, in accordance with the accelerator pedal opening angle, to allow the vehicle to continue at a minimal speed. 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 engine switch is then turned off.
WIRING DIAGRAM
Refer to DTC P2102 (Click here).INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- HINT:
- Read freeze frame data using the intelligent 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.
- Refer to "Data List / Active Test" [Throttle Position Command, Throttle Position No. 1, Throttle Motor Current, Throttle Motor Duty (Open), Throttle Motor Duty (Close)] (Click here).
1.CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P2111 OR P2112) |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the tester on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.
Read DTCs.
Result Result Proceed to P2111 or P2112 is output A P2111 or P2112 and other DTCs are output B - HINT:
- If any DTCs other than P2111 or P2112 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

2.INSPECT THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY (VISUALLY CHECK THROTTLE VALVE) |
Check for contamination between the throttle valve and the housing. If necessary, clean the throttle body. And check that the throttle valve moves smoothly.
- OK:
- Throttle valve is not contaminated with foreign objects and moves smoothly.
|

OK | |
3.READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (THROTTLE POSITION)) |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the tester on.
Clear DTCs (Click here).
Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / All Data / Throttle Position No. 1, Throttle Position No. 2 and Throttle Position Command.
Check the values displayed on the tester while wiggling the ECM wire harness.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.
Check for DTCs.
*: As the DTC was stored due to a change in the contact resistance of the connector, repair or replace the wire harness or connector (Click here).Result Result Proceed to Value in Data List changes when wire harness is wiggled, or DTC is output* A Other than above B

5.CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (DTC P2111 OR P2112) |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the tester on.
Clear DTCs (Click here).
Start the engine, and fully depress and release the accelerator pedal quickly (to fully open and close the throttle valve).
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.
Read DTCs.
Result Result Proceed to No DTC is output A P2111 or P2112 is output B
