The throttle valve position sensor is integrated in the throttle valve actuator motor.
Location of electric connection for throttle valve actuator motor - tps (throttle valve position sensor).
Connection wiring diagram
Ccm engine control connection, s throttle valve position sensor. Main potentiometer p: 3 signal, orange/blue - o/b, secondary potentiometer s: 1 signal, orange/green - o/g, 4 common ground, black/yellow bk/y, 2 common power (5v), brown/yellow - bn/y.
In the event of fault
In the event of a throttle valve position sensor fault, the ecu disables the ride-by-wire system and the engine will not start, remains running at idle or stops.
Fault codes generated and possible correlated faults
Fault codes generated by the engine control unit and displayed by the dds (throttle position sensor 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 "throttle position" 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 three preset positions (0%, 50%, 100%) using the dds.
The dds may be used to read the throttle valve position value.
If none of the tests described above identify the problem and the throttle valve position sensor is in proper working order, contact ducati.
Component replacement methods
The throttle valve position sensor is integrated into the throttle valve actuator motor and cannot be replaced as an individual component. In case it brakes down it will be necessary to fit a new throttle body (refer to this section operating principle and characteristics of the ride-by-wire system). After replacement of the throttle body, reset the self-adaptive parameters relative to carburation with the dds. Adjust the cables connecting the throttle grip to the throttle grip position sensor.
Trip 2 meter
This function shows the distance travelled since the trip meter was last
reset (in km or miles depending on the specific
application).
Press and hold (1) "s" for 3 seconds while in this function to reset the trip
odometer.
When the reading exceeds 9999.9, Distance travelled is reset and t ...
Rectifier-regulator
The rectifier (1) is placed in the electrical components compartment.
The rectifier/regulator consists of an aluminium casing containing the diodes
that rectify the current produced by the
alternator. It also contains an electronic device that regulates the current
supplied by the alternator ...
Indicator cons. Avg - average fuel consumption
This function indicates the "average" fuel consumption.
The calculation is made considering the quantity of fuel used and the km
travelled since the last trip 1 reset. When trip 1
is reset, the value is set to zero and the first available value is shown on the
display 10 seconds after the re ...
