Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Throttle valve actuator motor relay

Introduction

The throttle valve actuator motor is powered by the engine control unit. The engine control unit receives the necessary power from a specific relay.

Component assembling position

Throttle valve actuator motor relay


A injection relay; b etv relay (throttle valve actuator motor), c radiator fan relay, d engine control unit.

Connection wiring diagram

Connection wiring diagram


Ccm engine control connection, t throttle valve actuator motor relay. 85 Throttle valve actuator motor relay activation, light blue/green - lb/g, 87 ecu power input for throttle valve actuator motor, red/brown r/bn, 30 and 86 red/purple - r/v, r battery positive (+30).

In the event of fault

In the event of a throttle valve actuator relay fault, the ecu cuts motor power and the throttle valves close (see chapter operating principle and characteristics of the ride-by-wire system in this section).

Fault codes generated and possible correlated faults

Fault codes generated by the engine control unit and displayed by the dds (etv relay diagnosis):

Note

Check integrity of electric circuit - short-circuit to vdc = with dashboard on, using a voltmeter, a voltage is measured between the wire tested and ground.

Check integrity of electric circuit - short-circuit to ground = with the battery cables disconnected, using an ohmmeter, continuity is detected between the wire tested and ground.

Check integrity of electric circuit - open circuit = with the battery cables disconnected, using an ohmmeter, no continuity is detected between the two ends of the wire tested.

The dashboard service display shows the error "etv relay" (throttle valve actuator motor relay) and the eobd warning light activates.

Possible correlated faults: the engine does not start, cuts out or remains running at idle speed and will not accelerate.

Check:

The throttle valve actuator motor may be actuated into one of the three preset positions (0%, 50%, 100%) using the dds. During motor actuation, the throttle valve actuator motor relay is driven.

If none of the tests described above identify the problem and the throttle valve actuator relay is in proper working order, contact ducati.

Component replacement methods

No special measures are necessary in order to replace the throttle valve actuator motor relay.

Injection relay
Introduction The fuel pump, injectors and ignition coils are all powered via the injection relay. The relay also sends voltage to the engine control unit, which enables activation of the relay its ...

Starter motor relay
Introduction When the rider presses the start button, with all the safety conditions required to enable engine start met, the engine control unit enables the relay that activates the starter motor ...

Adjusting the front fork
The front fork used on this motorcycle has rebound, compression and spring preload adjustment. This adjustment is done using the outer adjusters: Rebound damping; Inner spring preload; Compression damping. Park the motorcycle in a stable position on its side stand. Turn the adjust ...

Removing the frame and the lateral footrests
Loosen the two special screws (6) to separate the frame (1) from the lateral brackets (2) and (3). On the left side of the vehicle block retaining pins (9) and loosen the nuts (8) on the right side at the same time. Slide out the retaining pins (9) and remove the frame (1) from the lateral ...

Headlight aim
The motorcycle must be perfectly upright with the tires inflated to the correct pressure and with a rider seated, perfectly perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. Position the motorcycle 10 metres from a wall or a screen. On the wall or surface, draw a horizontal line at the same height fr ...
