I'm not really good with DBW throttles, don't like them and never had to troubleshoot one before but I thought maybe I had a bad throttle unit on the new engine based on readings so I hooked up the old throttle and got very similar numbers.
Is there a way to do diagnostics on the pedal assembly?
Here are the numbers I got with the designations from my HF scanner:
Engine Off Values, "new" throttle on engine
TP Closed - 27.2% WOT 39.6%
TP_R - 14.9% / 26.3%
TP_B - 28.6% / 39.6%
APP_D - 19.6% / 85.1%
APP_E - 9.8% / 42.4%
TAC_PCT 19.6% / 37.3%
"old" throttle connected to harness
TP Closed - 27.5% WOT 39.6%
TP_R - 14.5% / 26.3%
TP_B - 28.2% / 40.4%
APP_D - 19.6% / 85.1%
APP_E - 9.8% / 42.4%
TAC_PCT 19.2% / 37.3%
I had thought that maybe the new unit was bad and I'd see more matching values but since they're the almost the same with both units for now I'm assuming they are both good. The car drove to my house under it's own power with only a dying engine and I'm at a loss here. Any help appreciated.
