    1. Check the throttle control motor operating sound.
      1. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
      2. When depressing the accelerator pedal, check the operating sound of the throttle control motor. Make sure that no friction noises are emitted from the throttle control motor.

        If friction noise exists, replace the throttle with motor body assembly.

    2. Check the throttle position sensor.
      1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
