Circuit/System Description
A throttle plate actuator is used to achieve high exhaust gas
recirculation rates. It increases the pressure difference between
exhaust and intake so that the appropriate exhaust quantity can be
mixed with the intake air. The engine control module (ECM)
transmits the desired angle as a PWM signal to the throttle plate
actuator. The throttle plate actuator operates the DC motor to
control the throttle plate based on the PWM signal from the ECM.
The throttle plate position is monitored by an internal position
sensor.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • |
The ignition is ON, or the
engine is running. |
| • |
The throttle actuator motor is
commanded ON or OFF. |
| • |
The ignition voltage is less
than 16 V. |
| • |
The DTCs run continuously when
the above conditions are met. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM detects an open, short to ground, or a short to voltage
on the throttle actuator control circuit for greater than 1 s.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTCs P2100, P2102 and P2103 are Type A DTCs.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTCs P2100, P2102 and P2103 are Type A DTCs.

Circuit/System Verification
| 1. |
Ignition ON, command the Q38
Throttle Body ON and OFF with a scan tool. The throttle blade
should respond to the scan tool commands. |
| 2. |
Observe the scan tool DTC
information parameter. DTCs P2100, P2101, P2102 or P2103 should not
set. |
| 3. |
Operate the vehicle within the
Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset.
You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you
observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data. |
Circuit/System Testing
| 1. |
Ignition OFF, disconnect the
harness connector at the Q38 Throttle Body. |
| 2. |
Ignition ON, connect a test
lamp between control circuit terminal 2 and ground. The test lamp
should illuminate. |
| ⇒ |
If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the
control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
If the circuits test normal, replace the K20 Engine Control
Module. |
| 3. |
Ignition ON, connect a test
lamp between control circuit terminal 6 and ground. The test lamp
should illuminate. |
| ⇒ |
If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the
control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
If the circuits test normal, replace the K20 Engine Control
Module. |
| 4. |
Ignition OFF, disconnect the
harness connector X1 at the K20 Engine Control Module. |
| 5. |
Ignition ON, connect a test
lamp between the control circuit terminal 6 and ground. The test
lamp should not illuminate. |
| ⇒ |
If the test lamp illuminate, test the control
circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuits test normal,
replace the K20 Engine Control Module. |
| 6. |
Ignition ON, connect a test
lamp between the control circuit terminal 2 and ground. The test
lamp should not illuminate. |
| ⇒ |
If the test lamp illuminate, test the control
circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuits test normal,
replace the K20 Engine Control Module. |
| 7. |
If all circuits test normal,
replace the Q38 Throttle Body. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the
Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic
procedure.
