P2101 Subaru Throttle Actuator Position Performance

P2101 Subaru Throttle Actuator Position Performance

Possible causes
– Faulty Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) module
– Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) module harness is open or shorted
– Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) module circuit poor electrical connection

What about the obd code?
The Engine Control Module (ECM) has detected an out of range condition between the predicted and actual throttle position.
Symptoms
– Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
– No throttle response
P2101 Subaru Description

The Engine Control Module (ECM) is the control center for the Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) system. The ECM determines the drivers intent and then calculates the appropriate throttle response. The ECM achieves throttle positioning by providing a pulse width modulated voltage to the TAC motor. The TAC system uses the following circuits for Motor control 1 and Motor control 2.

Two processors are also used to monitor the TAC system data. Both processors are located within the ECM. Both processors monitor each other’s data to verify that the indicated throttle position is correct.
