Throttle valve control module, checking
Vehicles with engine code AEG (80-pin Engine Control Module -ECM-)
Vehicles with engine code AVH, AZG (121-pin
Engine Control Module -ECM-), see VEHICLES WITH ENGINE CODE AVH, AZG (121 -PIN ENGINE
CONTROL MODULE -ECM-).
Function
Components of throttle valve control module (J338):
l Closed Throttle Position (CTP) Switch -F60-
l Throttle Position (TP) sensor -G69-
l Throttle Position (TP) Sensor -G88-
l Throttle Position (TP) Actuator -V60-
If the complete throttle valve control module is current-less (e.g. connector disconnected) the throttle valve
moves into a particular, specified mechanical position, which signals an increased idle speed with an engine at
operating temperature.
If only the Throttle Position (TP) Actuator -V60- is current-less, the throttle valve also moves into the specified
mechanical position (emergency running gap), however, since Closed Throttle Position (CTP) Switch -F60- can
still be recognized, an "almost normal" is reached via the respective ignition angle retardation.
If the Engine Control Module (ECM) detects a malfunction at Throttle Position (TP) Sensor - G69-, Throttle
Position (TP) Actuator -V60- is switched current -less by the Engine Control Module (ECM) and the throttle
valve moves into the specified mechanical position (emergency running gap) again.
Recommended special tools and equipment
l VAG1526 multimeter or VAG1715 multimeter
l VAG1594 connector test kit
l Wiring diagram
Test requirements
l The respective fuses of Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J220- must be OK.
NOTE: Use only gold-plated terminals when servicing terminals in harness connector
of throttle valve control module.
NOTE: Terminal assignment at throttle control unit is different in vehicles with and
without cruise control. Characteristic: Steering column switch with operating
unit for cruise control.
