DTC47, 48Sub±Throttle Position Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This sensor detects the opening angle of the sub±throttle valve and sends the appropriate signals to the ECU.
If a trouble signal is input, the ECU prohibits TRAC control.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
47
When any of the following (1) through (3) is detected:
(1) Deviation of 5 steps or more to the closedside of the idle step during sub±throttleinitial check.
(2) Voltage at terminal IDL2 switch is OFF evenafter sub±throttle is driven to fully closedposition during
sub±throttle initial check 4.
(3) Voltage at terminal VSH is 1.45 V or morefor at least 0.15 sec. while idle switch is ON.

Troubleshooting
If the CO/HC concentration does not comply with regulations,
perform troubleshooting in the order given below.
(a) Check main heated oxygen sensor operation.
(See MFI System on page EG±400)
(b) See the table below for possible causes, and then inspect and correct the applicable causes if necessary.

15. CHECK CYLINDER COMPRESSION PRESSURE
(a) Reconnect the battery negative (±) cable.
(b) Insert a compression gauge into the spark plug hole.
(c) Fully open the throttle.
(d) Wh ile cra n kin g th e en g in e , me a su re th e co mp re ssio npressure.
HINT: Always use a fully charged battery to obtain engine
speed of 250 rpm or more.
(e) Repeat steps (b) through (d) for each cylinder. NOTICE: This measurement must be done in as short a
time as possible.
Compression pressure:
1,226 kPa (12.5 kgf/cm
2, 178 psi) or more
Minimum pressure: 981 kPa (10.0 kgf/cm
2, 142 psi)
Difference between each cylinder: 98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2, 14 psi) or less
(f) If the cylinder compression in one or more cylinders is low,pour a sm all amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the
spark plug hole and repeat steps (b) through (d) for cylinders
with low compression.
w If adding oil helps the compression, it is likely that the
piston rings and/or cylinder bore are worn or damage.
w If pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or seating
is improper, or there may be leakage past the gasket.
(g) Disconnect the battery negative (±) cable.
16. REINSTALL SPARK PLUGS
Using a 16 mm plug wrench, install the 8 spark plugs.
