2AZ-FE ENGINE CONTROL: SFI SYSTEM: P0657: Actuator Supply Voltage Circuit / Open

DTC P0657 - Actuator Supply Voltage Circuit / Open

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM monitors the output voltage to the throttle actuator. This self-check ensures that the ECM is functioning properly. The output voltage is usually 0 V when the ignition switch is turned off. If the output voltage is higher than 7 volts when the ignition switch is turned off, the ECM will illuminate the MIL and set the DTC the next time the ignition switch is turned to ON.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.

PROCEDURE

1. READ OUTPUT DTC (DTC P0657)
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Clear the DTC DTC Check / Clear.
(e) Turn the ignition switch off and turn the Techstream off.
(f) Disconnect the Techstream.
(g) Disconnect the cable from the battery negative (-) terminal and wait for 1 minute.
(h) Connect the cable to the battery negative (-) terminal.
(i) Turn the ignition switch to ON for 10 seconds.
(j) Turn the ignition switch off.
(k) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(l) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(m) Turn the Techstream on.
(n) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
(o) Read DTCs.
