- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Clear the DTC with the HDS.
- Slowly press the accelerator pedal to the floor.
- Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS. Is DTC P2118 indicated? YES - Go to step 5 . NO - Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the throttle body and the ECM/PCM.
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Disconnect the throttle actuator control module 16P connector (see «THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL MODULE REPLACEMENT»(ref-290847-S16855799292008072200000) ).
- Measure resistance between throttle actuator control module 16P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 8. Is there about 1.0 ohms, or less? YES - Go to step 8 . NO - Substitute a known-good throttle actuator control module (see «THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL MODULE REPLACEMENT»(ref-290847-S16855799292008072200000) ), then go to step 11 and recheck. If DTC P2118 is not indicated, replace the original throttle actuator control module (see «THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL MODULE REPLACEMENT»(ref-290847-S16855799292008072200000) ), then go to step 11 .
- Disconnect the throttle body 6P connector.
- At throttle body side, measure resistance between throttle body 6P connector terminals No. 5 and No. 6 with the throttle fully closed. Is there about 1.0 ohms or less? YES - Go to step 10 . NO - Repair short in the wires between the throttle body and the throttle actuator control module (motor drive lines), then go to step 11 .
- Replace the throttle body (see «THROTTLE BODY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-290823-S31565991452008072200000) ).
- Reconnect all connectors.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
- Do «ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE»(ref-290807-S02808252682008072200000) .
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Slowly press the accelerator pedal to the floor.
- Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS. Is DTC P2118 indicated? YES - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the throttle body and the throttle actuator control module, then go to step 1 . NO - Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to «INDICATED DTCS TROUBLESHOOTING»(ref-290847-S35130373092008072200000) .
