Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Pontiac Firebird, 2000 Chevrolet Corvette, and 2000 Chevrolet Camaro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Commanded throttle position (based on accelerator pedal position and possibly other limiting factors) is compared to actual throttle position. Both values should be within calibrated range. Commanded and actual throttle position are monitored redundantly by both PCM and TAC modules.

Conditions for setting DTC are: PCM detects that commanded and actual throttle positions are not within a calibrated range of each other and condition is present for less than one second.
