I show how to test electronic throttle body with a scan tool using the XTOOL D7 active scanner. Testing the electronic throttle body with a scanner is a good next step when having bad throttle body symptoms or signs of a bad throttle body. The electronic throttle control unit is vital for vehicle emissions. Electronic throttle body testing with a scan tool is fast and easy with tools like the D7, other comparable active scan tools can do this as well e.g., Autel. In summary, remember to test electronic throttle body with a scanner if you ever suspect it to be failing or have idle issues. Worn gears in a DBW throttle body results in increased discrepancy between the commanded and actual opening of the butterfly valve.
