4-44 FI SYSTEM
“C29” STP SENSOR CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION
INSPECTION
DETECTED CONDITION POSSIBLE CAUSE
Signal voltage low or high.
Difference between actual throttle opening and
opening calculated by ECM in larger than specified
value.
• STP sensor maladjusted.
• STP sensor circuit open or short.
• STP sensor malfunction.
• ECM malfunction.

Reset the STP sensor
position correctly.
(

4-68)
Replace the STP sensor
with a new one.
Turn the ignition switch OFF.
Check the STP sensor coupler for loose or poor contacts.
If OK, then measure the STP sensor input voltage.
Disconnect the STP sensor coupler.
Turn the ignition switch ON.
Measure the voltage at the Red wire and ground.
If OK, then measure the voltage at the Red wire and B/Br
wire.

Close and open the secondary throttle valve by finger, and
measure the valve closing and opening resistance.
