Continue - Checking components and wiring

-------------------------------------------------

Checking components and wiring




- Ignition off
- Check the throttle unit and engine control module (ECM) connectors. Check for contact resistance and oxidation.
Check the resistance values of the potentiometers in the throttle unit.
Check that the shutter in the throttle unit is not blocked or sticking. Clean as necessary.
Check the function of the integrated return spring in the throttle unit by carefully manually turning the throttle to wide open position and then carefully releasing the throttle. Check that the return spring returns the shutter to its resting position.
If the return spring does not return the shutter, the throttle unit is damaged.
Remedy as necessary.

Continue - Adaptation of the throttle unit

-------------------------------------------------

Adaptation of the throttle unit

Hint: Faults which cause this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) may affect the adaptation values for the throttle unit. Carry out adaptation of the throttle unit to update the adaptation values.

Note! The ignition must be switched on for at least 30 seconds after the basic conditions are met in order for the adaptation to start. It takes approximately 10 seconds to run the adaptation.








- Ignition off
- Reinstall the components and connectors etc.
- Ignition on.
Read off parameters.
Check that the following basic conditions for adaptation of the throttle unit are met.
1. Ignition on / engine off
2. Battery voltage above 10 V
3. Accelerator pedal (AP) unaffected
4. The vehicle must be stationary (no vehicle speed signal)
5. Engine coolant temperature (ECT) between 5-100 °C
6. Intake air temperature (IAT) above 5 °C.
Remedy as necessary.
Check that the adaptation is correctly run after the "Adaptation of the throttle unit running" parameter changes status from "YES" to "NO". When all basic conditions are met, the adaptation must be completed after approximately 40 seconds. When the adaptation is completed correctly, the following information will be displayed:
- Adaptation of the throttle unit: OK
- Adaptation of the throttle unit running: NO.









Select Continue without switching off the ignition when the adaptation is OK.

Continue - Checking the function

-------------------------------------------------

Checking the function




- Ignition on.
Read off the diagnostic status and fault status for the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) by selecting the relevant diagnostic trouble code (DTC) from the list.
Check whether the fault is permanent or intermittent. Read off the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) fault status when the diagnostic status is "Completed".

Hint: In some cases several functions of the component will be diagnosed. The affects the amount of time taken to run the diagnostic.

The fault is permanent if the fault status is "Fault found". If the fault status is "No fault found" the fault is intermittent and not presently active.





Continue - Replacing the component

-------------------------------------------------

Replacing the component




- Ignition off.
Try a new throttle unit. Throttle body, B5254T7 Removal and Replacement

Hint: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.








- Ignition off
- Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
- Ignition on
- Read off parameters.
Check that the following basic conditions for adaptation of the throttle unit are met.
1. Ignition on / engine off
2. Battery voltage above 10 V
3. Accelerator pedal (AP) unaffected
4. The vehicle must be stationary (no vehicle speed signal)

When all basic conditions are met, the adaptation must be completed after approximately 40 seconds. When the adaptation is completed correctly, the following information will be displayed:
- Adaptation of the throttle unit: OK
- Adaptation of the throttle unit running: NO.









Select Continue without switching off the ignition when the adaptation is OK.

Continue - Verification, continued

Verification, continued

Hint: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.








- Ignition off
- Reconnect the connectors, reinstall components etc.
Read off the diagnostic status and fault status for the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) by selecting the relevant diagnostic trouble code (DTC) from the list.
Check the fault status for the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) when the diagnostic is "Complete". If the function is correct, the fault status must be "No fault found" when the diagnostic is complete.





Is the function OK?

Yes - VERIFIED

No - VERIFICATION FAILED

Information

Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.

Do you want to exit fault-tracing?

Yes - Exit fault-tracing

No - Attempt New Test
