• Throttle position sensor fault
• Wiring issue
• ECU throttle driver failure

Diagnostic steps

1. Perform throttle body adaptation/basic setting

4. Check wiring and connector
5. Monitor commanded vs actual throttle position

Repair notes

Clean throttle body and perform adaptation; replace if motor has failed.
