DTC P1659: General Description
The electronic throttle control system controls the throttle valve opening. The system includes the throttle actuator, the throttle valve, throttle position (TP) sensors A and B, the PGM-FI subrelay circuit, the accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor, and the powertrain control module (PCM). When the accelerator pedal is pressed, the APP sensor detects the accelerator pedal opening value. The accelerator pedal opening value is converted to a signal in the APP sensor and transmitted to the PCM to compute the target position. The PCM determines the throttle valve target position according to the signal received and operates the throttle actuator to move the throttle valve to the target position. The actual throttle valve position is determined by TP sensors A and B (installed in the throttle body). When the voltage from the PGM-FI subrelay circuit is not input for a set time after the PGM-FI subrelay circuit is turned on when the vehicle condition to the ON mode, or when voltage is not applied for a set time when the throttle actuator is operating, the PCM detects a malfunction in the PGM-FI subrelay circuit power switch and stores a DTC.
