SchematicTest Step 1. Inspect Electrical Connectors and Wiring
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF/RESET position.
Thoroughly inspect the J1/P1 ECM connector, the J61/P61 machine connector, and the J403/P403 throttle position sensor connector. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electrical Connectors - Inspect" for details.Expected Result:All connectors, pins, and sockets should be completely inserted and coupled. The harness and wiring should be free of corrosion, abrasion, and pinch points.Results:
OK - Proceed to Test Step 2.
Not OK - Repair: Repair the circuit.Verify that the repair eliminates the problem.STOPTest Step 2. Inspect the Throttle Pedal Assembly
Inspect the throttle pedal assembly for components that are loose, bent, missing, or worn.
Slowly depress the pedal and release the pedal.Expected Result:The throttle pedal assembly should operate smoothly without excessive drag. The pedal should return to the low idle position without assistance in less than one second.Results:
OK - The throttle pedal assembly functions properly. Proceed to Test Step 3.
Not OK - Repair: Repair the throttle pedal assembly, as required.STOPTest Step 3. Check the Status on ET
Connect ET to the service tool connector.
Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
Observe the status of "Throttle Position" on ET while you operate the throttle pedal.Expected Result:The status should be approximately 0 percent when the throttle pedal is released. The status should progressively increase to 100 percent when the throttle pedal is fully depressed.Results:
OK - The throttle position sensor is working properly.Repair: Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electrical Connectors - Inspect" if the problem is intermittent.STOP
Not OK - Proceed to Test Step 4.Test Step 4. Check the Supply Voltage at the Sensor
Install a 7X-6370 Adapter Cable (3 Pin DT Breakout) at the J403/P403 throttle position sensor connector.
Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
Measure the voltage across terminal A
