Lotus Service Notes
Throttle Actuator Control System – Forced Idle
P2104 Throttle actuator control system – forced idle
Description
If a problem is detected which could result in faster engine speed than commanded by the pedal, the actuator
is switched out, allowing the throttle valve to default to a 6% mechanically sprung setting. This provides a fast
idle speed which may be used to effect a 'limp home' mechanism.
Monitor:
• Continuous
Enable Criteria:
• Engine running
Disable Criteria:
• None
Potential failure modes:
• Electronic throttle fault
Note: This code indicates action taken by the ECU, and will always be accompanied by another code which
has caused this action.
Throttle Actuator Control System – Forced Engine Shutdown
P2105 Throttle actuator control system – forced engine shutdown
Description
If a problem is detected which could result in engine speed runaway, or if sufficient control of engine speed is
lost, the ECU switches off the fuel injectors in order to stop the engine.
Monitor:
• Continuous
Enable Criteria:
• Engine running
Disable Criteria:
• None
Potential failure modes:
• Electronic throttle fault
Note: This code indicates action taken by the ECU, and will always be accompanied by another code which
has caused this action.
