Description of SID 230 – Throttle Control Fault
SID 230 indicates that a fault has occurred in the throttle control.
The diagnostic condition is typically:
- Idle Validation Switch Open Circuit (230 05)
- Idle Validation Switch Short to Ground (230 12)
Accelerator Pedal – The accelerator pedal (AP) sends an input signal which the DDEC-VCU uses to calculate engine power proportional to the foot pedal position. See Figure "Location of DDEC-VCU and Wiring Harness Connectors" . This assembly is also referred to as the AP Sensor assembly.

Accelerator Pedal Installation– MBE electronic controls are compatible with an AP which has an output voltage that meets SAE J1843 and has less than 5% of voltage supply closed throttle variability. See Figure "Typical Accelerator Pedal Installation" .
