mrharvey1301 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 Hoping a could get some input on this fault I did a test run of the car calibrated e throttle all seemed to work fine on the test with no errors, I’ve since finalised all the wiring, removed any pins not used from a/b plugs since trying to start again I have instantly had fault code 73, pinned the loom and appears the aux8 is not pulling in the relay in normal operation If if I force the e throttle to setup on mode then the throttle body functions fine it seems very similar to the forum post below Haven’t had a chance to try and log the fault yet as the car isn’t with me any suggestions much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 If it works in setup mode but gives fault code 73 in ON mode then it is likely one of the safety systems kicking in. Note, you need to power cycle the ECU to reset the safety system once it has kicked in. As per my post in that thread you linked, the first thing to do is log it and look at the error accumulators.

mrharvey1301 Posted January 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 it appears to be a tps main and sub differential issue, hopefully the log attached shows this throttle is off a ba falcon aps is off an fg falcon have tried both the auto calibration (this log) and also your help files specified values which were different, also mechanically moved the e throttle and recorded the values the blade also flickers rapidly if quick movements are made with the aps as seen in the log Log 2019-01-1 11;35;14 am test.llg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cj Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 you have TPS main and sub round the wrong way. Your TPS main must span the full range of motion, while the TPS sub can max out earlier. Yours is somewhere between 55 and 60. switch over the main and sub TPS assignments and re-run the calibration. The flapping behaviour you see at abotu 7 seconds and later in the log is usually caused by misconfigured PID values. have you set these up as per the values in the help files? There is a process to tune them manually if these values dont work but its a bit involved and they are usually a pretty resonable starting point.

Was lucky enough to have my e throttle on links files so put the values directly into the tables, you were spot on with the sub/main switch, for some reason I set it up back to front even though my wiring diagram states it’s youre suggested way, implemented the changes and works fine, the blade flutter is also gone now appreciate the assistance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
