In this paper, two PID conventional controllers of an Electronic Throttle Valve (ETV), based observers, are developed to estimate the opening angle of the electronic throttle, to compensate unexpected ...

Diagnostics and control are critical for ensuring sufficient reliability and availability of electronic throttle control (ETC) system in modern vehicles. A nonlinear electronic throttle control system ...

The throttle body has a throttle position sensor (TPS) to monitor the accelerator pedal movement. Meanwhile, the mass air flow sensor and TPS send data to the engine control unit (ECU), which ...

An illuminated or blinking ETC warning light in a modern car indicates a malfunction in the electronic throttle control. Older cars have physical linkages between the throttle pedal and the ...

rusEFI supports electronic throttle body control. Also called drive by wire (DBW), there is no physical cable between the throttle pedal, or pedal position sensor (PPS), and the throttle. The PPS is ...

If the feedback from the throttle control sensor doesn’t match the ECM’s expectations, it triggers the electronic control light to indicate a discrepancy. In certain body designs, the sensor may not ...

The throttle position sensor (TPS) can be found alongside the throttle body. It’s a sensor that includes a magnetic disk to send electronic pulses to the engine control module (ECM).

What Causes An Electronic Throttle Control Light To Come On? The most common causes of an electronic throttle control light are a faulty throttle control sensor or a faulty throttle accelerator pedal ...
