Engine General Information and Diagnosis: 1A-8

This throttle body is not equipped with IAC valve for idle speed control. Idle speed control is done by the throttle
actuator which opens/closes the throttle valve.

Description of Electric Throttle Body System Calibration

S6JB0B1101007
ECM calculates controlled opening of the throttle valve on the basis of the completely closed throttle valve position of
the electric throttle body system. The completely closed position data is saved in memory of ECM. However, the
completely closed position of the throttle valve of the electric throttle body system (signal voltage from throttle position
sensor when throttle is completely closed) differs one from the other depending on individual differences of the throttle
valve and throttle position sensor. As such individual differences must be taken into account for controlling the throttle
valve, it is necessary to register the completely closed throttle valve position data in ECM. When such data is
registered in ECM, it is saved in RAM (memory) of ECM and used as the base data for controlling the throttle valve.
This data is cleared, when any of the works described in “Precautions of Electric Throttle Body System Calibration” is
performed.
Also, after replacement of the throttle body and/or accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor assembly, the completely
closed position data in memory of ECM must be cleared once and a new one must be registered, or ECM cannot
judge the complete closure position properly.
For the procedure to register such data, refer to “Electric Throttle Body System Calibration in Section 1C”. (After the
completely closed position data is cleared, ECM, for the first time only, opens and closes the throttle valve for about 5
seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON position, for registration of the completely closed throttle valve position.
If the engine is started during this registration process, such symptom as “longer cranking time” or “slow rise of
revolution speed immediately after start-up” may occur. However, turning OFF the ignition switch once and restarting
will set correct registration.)
