G69/F60 Throttle position switch:

The pin-out on this connector (Based on Pg. X56 in Vol.3 of the Bentley) and the G69/F60 is as follows:

Pin 1: A red wire that also connects to T12/55 in the ECU which provides 5V+ to the G69/F60 combination
as well as the F96 Barometric Pressure Sensor and the G40 Cam Position sensor. (Note: The Bentley
incorrectly calls the Pressure Sensor the "G16" but there is no such "G16" device for the AAN).

Pin 2: Green wire with a Black stripe - goes to ground connection 5 in the engine harness.

Pin 3: Gray wire connected to pin T53/55 in the ECU - the signal is the 5V+ modified by the variable
resistor in the throttle position switch which tells the ECU the degree to which the throttle body is open,
which helps the ECU compute "load".

Pin 4: Brown wire with a red stripe, goes to ground connection 2 in the engine harness.

Pin 5 - not used

Pin 6 - Violet (purple) wire that connects to pin T52/55 in the ECU that tells the ECU that the throttle is
closed (via the microswitch in the diagram shown above).

Testing the F60 Closed Throttle (Idle) Switch is as follows:

Across Pins 4 and 6 on the switch:


Closed = 0 ohms (continuity)
Open throttle (slightly) = infinite ohms (open)
If either fails, adjust switch as per procedure above.

Testing the G69 Throttle Position Potentiometer:

Across Pins 1 and 2 on the switch:


Must be 1500 to 2600 ohms

Across Pins 2 and 3 on the switch:


Throttle closed = 750 to 1300 ohms
As throttle is opened from closed to WOT = increase to 3600 ohms
If NO, replace sensor.
