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 ...

Refitting the engine
Refitting is the reverse of removal. Important Apply recommended grease and tighten the special screws (6) to a torque of 60 nm +/- 5% (sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings). Tighten the nuts (3) to a torque of 48 nm +/- 5% (sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings). Warning For the assembly seque ...

Storing the bike away
If the motorcycle is to be left unridden over long periods, it is advisable to carry out the following operations before storing it away: clean the motorcycle; empty the fuel tank; pour a few drops of engine oil into the cylinders through the spark plug bores, then turn the engine over by hand ...

Removal of the lubrication system
Disconnect the sensor (12) of the main wiring. Open the pipe grommet (11). Undo the screw (8) and slide out the plate (9). Slide the tubes (7) out of the half-casing having care not to damage the tubes o-rings (a) that guarantee the coupling sealing. Undo and remove the sc ...
