Dantical Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 hi, does anyone know how much current the LS3 Throttlebody ( DBW ) draws? I just want to be sure About the wiring size,... thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevieturbo Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 Depends under what circumstances. But there would be no need for anything larger than OEM wiring....and any current ability would only apply to the motor wiring itself....not to mention the actual abilities of the H-Bridge running it. If they ever seen more than 10-15A...there would be a major problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barge Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 Seems like most OEM's have very oversized wire on their DBW throttle bodies. Probably to compensate for cheap wire, variances, and all the other fun stuff OEM's consider. I used 20awg for my Hemi throttle body without issue so far.
