Digital Throttle Position Sensor Circuit - Test

SMCS - 1913-038
System Operation Description:
Use this procedure under the following situation:
Use this procedure if any of the following diagnostic codes are indicated:
• 0041-03 8 Volt DC Supply voltage above normal
• 0041-04 8 Volt DC Supply voltage below normal
• 0091-03 Throttle Position Sensor voltage above normal
• 0091-04 Throttle Position Sensor voltage below normal
• 0091-08 Throttle Position Sensor abnormal frequency, pulse width, or period
• 0091-12 Accelerator pedal - power supply failure
Also, use this procedure if the digital throttle position sensor is suspected of improper operation.
Digital Throttle Position Sensor
The digital throttle position sensor is used to provide a digital throttle position signal to the Engine
Control Module (ECM). The sensor output is a constant frequency signal with a pulse width that
varies with the pedal position. This output signal is a duty cycle or a pulse width modulated signal
(PWM) and is expressed as a percentage between 3 and 100 percent.
The digital throttle position sensor is attached directly to the throttle pedal assembly. The digital
throttle position sensor requires no adjustment.

The digital throttle position sensor produces a duty cycle of 10 to 22 percent at low idle and 75 to 90
percent at high idle. The percent of duty cycle is translated in the ECM into a throttle position of 3 to
100 percent.
The digital throttle position sensor is powered by the ECM supply voltage (+8 VDC). The supply
voltage is from the J1:43 to terminal "A" of the digital throttle position sensor connector.
When using the "Manual" function of the Throttle Hold Mode, the digital throttle position sensor will
be used only when the set engine speed is lower than the desired speed from the throttle position
sensor.
The ECM is in Throttle Hold Mode if the "Throttle Hold Mode Switch" is in the AUTOMATIC
position or the MANUAL position. This parameter can be checked with the electronic service tool.
Refer to the machine Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Operator Controls".

Test Step 1. Inspect Electrical Connectors and Wiring
A. Inspect the P1/J1 connector, OEM harness and the OEM connectors. Thoroughly inspect the
digital throttle position sensor connector. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electrical Connectors -
Inspect" for details.
B. Perform a 45 N (10 lb) pull test on each of the wires in the ECM connector that are associated
with the digital throttle position sensor:
◦ P1:33
◦ P1:43
◦ P1:53
C. Check the screw for the ECM connector for the correct torque of 5.0 N·m (44 lb in).
D. Check the harness for abrasion and pinch points from the digital throttle position sensor to the
ECM.
Expected Result:
All connectors, pins, and sockets are correctly coupled and/or inserted and the harness is free of
corrosion, of abrasion or of pinch points.
Results:
• OK - Proceed to Test Step 2.
• Not OK -
Repair: Perform the following repair:
Repair the connectors or the harness and/or replace the connectors or the harness. Ensure that
all of the seals are correctly in place and ensure that the connectors are correctly coupled.
Use the electronic service tool in order to clear all logged diagnostic codes and then verify that
the repair eliminates the fault.
STOP
Test Step 2. Check for Active Diagnostic Codes
A. Connect the electronic service tool to the diagnostic connector.
B. Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
C. Monitor the active diagnostic code screen on the electronic service tool. Check and record
active diagnostic codes.
Note: When the ECM calibrates new duty cycle values, the ECM assumes 22 percent duty
cycle at low idle and 75 percent duty cycle at high idle. As a result, the throttle position status
may reach 100 percent before the throttle pedal is fully depressed. This situation is normal.
After cycling of the throttle pedal to the high idle position, the ECM will adjust the calibration
automatically. During normal operation, more movement of the throttle pedal may be required
for the throttle position status to increase above 3 percent. The status may reach 100 percent
prior to the limit of the high idle position. This condition is created to ensure that the throttle
reaches these two critical points for engine operation.
Expected Result:
Result 1 Diagnostic code 91-8 or 91-12 is active.
Result 2 Diagnostic code 41-3, 41-4, 91-3 or 91-4 is active.
Result 3 There are no active diagnostic codes, but a fault is suspected with operation of the sensor
circuit.
Results:
• Result 1 - Proceed to Test Step 3.
Test Step 3. Check the Duty Cycle of the Digital Throttle Position Sensor
A. Verify that the keyswitch is in the ON position.
B. Monitor the duty cycle of the throttle sensor on the display screen of the electronic service tool.
Expected Result:
The duty cycle is between 10 and 22 percent with the throttle pedal assembly in the low idle position.
The duty cycle is between 75 and 90 percent with the throttle pedal assembly in the high idle position.
Results:
• OK - The digital throttle position sensor is operating correctly. Proceed to Test Step 6.
• Not OK - The digital throttle position sensor circuit is not operating correctly. Proceed to Test
Step 4.
Test Step 4. Check the Supply Voltage at the Digital Throttle Position Sensor
A. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
B. Install a breakout "T" with three terminals at the digital throttle position sensor connector
J403/P403.
C. Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
D. Measure the voltage between terminal "A" (+8 VDC) and terminal "B" (digital throttle position
sensor ground).
Expected Result:
The measured voltage is between 7.5 VDC and 8.5 VDC for the digital throttle position sensor.
Results:
• OK - Proceed to Test Step 8.
• Not OK - The sensor is not receiving the correct voltage. Proceed to Test Step 5.
Test Step 5. Monitor the Electronic Service Tool while the Digital Throttle Position Sensor is
Being Disconnected
A. Access the active diagnostic code screen on the electronic service tool. Ensure that one of the
following diagnostic code is active before proceeding:
◦ 41-3
◦ 41-4
◦ 91-3
◦ 91-4
B. Monitor the active diagnostic code screen while the digital throttle position sensor is being
disconnected and reconnected.
Expected Result:
One of the following diagnostic codes is still active after the digital throttle position sensor has been
disconnected:
• 41-3
• 41-4
• 91-3
• 91-4
Results:
• OK - Ensure that the digital throttle position sensor has been reconnected before continuing.
Proceed to Test Step 7.
• Not OK -
Repair: Perform the following diagnostic procedure:
Temporarily install another digital throttle position sensor. Use the electronic service tool in
order to check for an active +8 VDC diagnostic code. Replace the digital throttle position
sensor if both of the following conditions occur:
◦ The fault is corrected with the new digital throttle position sensor.
◦ The fault returns after the old digital throttle position sensor has been reconnected.
STOP
Test Step 6. Check the Status of the Throttle Lock Switch and the Status of the Power Train
Data Link with the Electronic Service Tool
A. Use the electronic service tool to check that the "Throttle Hold Mode Switch" is switched OFF.
The Throttle Hold Mode may cause the ECM to ignore the digital throttle position sensor if
demand is less than the Throttle Hold speed demand.
B. Start the engine. Use the electronic service tool in order to monitor the throttle position status.
While the throttle position status is being monitored, fully depress the throttle pedal and release
the throttle pedal. The throttle position status and the engine should respond to the change in the
throttle pedal position.
C. Go to the "Configuration Settings" screen on the electronic service tool and turn off the "Torque
Speed Control".
Note: The "Torque Speed Control" is an option that may be installed by the OEM.
D. While the throttle position status is being monitored, fully depress the throttle pedal and release
the throttle pedal. Also, monitor the response of the engine when the throttle pedal is depressed
and released.
Expected Result:
The throttle position status and the engine should respond to the change in the throttle pedal position.
Result 1 The digital throttle position sensor functions correctly.
Result 2 The throttle response is limited by a "Torque Speed Control" message.
Result 3 If a throttle hold system is installed, the Throttle Hold Mode limits the throttle response.
Results:
• Result 1 - The digital throttle position sensor is operating correctly. Continue troubleshooting
until the original condition is resolved.
STOP
• Result 2 - The engine response is normal when the "Torque Speed Control Link" setting is
disabled. However, the engine does not respond when the "Power Train Data Link" is enabled.
A component within the "Power Train Data Link" setting is causing the response fault of the
digital throttle position sensor. Refer to the OEM dealer in order to repair the faulty component
of the "Power Train Data Link".
STOP
• Result 3 - The ECM is operating in Throttle Hold Mode.
Repair: If the Throttle Hold Mode should not be active, refer to Troubleshooting, "Throttle
Lock Switch Circuit - Test".
STOP
Test Step 7. Disconnect the Power Supply Connections for the Digital Throttle Position Sensor
at the ECM
B. Disconnect connector P1. Remove the P1:43 (+8 VDC). Remove the P1:33 (digital throttle
position sensor ground) from connector P1.
C. Reconnect connector P1 to the ECM connector J1.
D. Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
E. Use the electronic service tool to check for active diagnostic codes.
Expected Result:
One of the following diagnostic codes is still active after the terminals for sensor power have been
disconnected:
• 41-3
• 41-4
Results:
• OK -
Check the battery voltage at pins 1, 2, 3, 9 and 10 (Battery ground) on connector P1. Check the
battery voltage at pins 7, 8, 15, and 16 (Battery+) on connector J1. The measured voltage
should be between 22.0 VDC and 27.0 VDC.
If the battery voltage is correct, temporarily connect a test ECM. Use the electronic service tool
to verify that the active diagnostic code is resolved. If the fault is corrected with the test ECM,
reconnect the suspect ECM. Verify that the active diagnostic code returns. If the active
diagnostic code returns with the suspect ECM, replace the ECM.
STOP
• Not OK -
There is a fault in the harness between the ECM and the digital throttle position sensor. While
active diagnostic codes are being monitored, connect the removed wires one at a time in order
to verify that the active diagnostic codes reappear. Replace pin P1:33 (digital throttle position
sensor ground). Replace pin P1:43 (+8 VDC). This procedure is used to find the wire that is
causing the fault. Repair the harness or replace the harness, as required.
STOP
Test Step 8. Check the Duty Cycle of the Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor at the Sensor
Note: Performing certain steps within this procedure requires the use of a multimeter that can
measure a PWM duty cycle.

terminal "B" (digital throttle position sensor ground) of the breakout T.
E. Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
F. While the duty cycle is being monitored on the multimeter, fully depress the throttle pedal and
release the throttle pedal.
Expected Result:
Results:
• OK - Reinsert the wire (terminal "C") into the harness connector of the digital throttle position
sensor. The digital throttle position sensor is working correctly. Proceed to Test Step 9.
• Not OK - Leave the multimeter probe connected to the breakout "T". Insert the wire (terminal
"C") into the machine harness connector. The throttle pedal assembly is faulty. Proceed to Test
Step 10.
Test Step 9. Check the Duty Cycle of the Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor at the ECM
Note: Performing certain steps within this procedure requires the use of a multimeter that can
measure a PWM duty cycle.
