•	Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.

•	Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

DTC P2104 00: Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) System - Forced Engine Idle Speed

DTC P2105 00: Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) System - Forced Engine Shutdown

DTC P2106 00: Throttle Actuator Control System - Throttle Limitation Active

DTC P2110 00: Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) System - Forced Limited Engine Speed

Circuit/System Description

DTC P2104 00, P2105 00, P2106 00, and P2110 00 indicate that a throttle actuator control (TAC) DTC is set that causes the engine control module (ECM) to command one of the following reduced power modes:

•	Forced engine idle

•	Forced engine shutdown

•	Throttle limitation

•	Limited engine speed

Conditions for Running the DTC

The ignition is ON or the engine is running.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

A malfunction with the TAC system is present.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

P2104 00, P2106 00,and P2110 00

•	DTC P2104 00, P2106 00, and P2110 00 are Type A DTCs.

•	The ECM commands the TAC system to operate in a reduced engine power mode.

•	The ECM commands the reduced engine power indicator ON.

Circuit/System Verification

Note: A low battery condition while cranking the engine may cause DTC P2106 00 to set.

Refer to Symptoms - Engine Electrical .

Note: In extremely cold weather conditions, ice may form in the vacuum source to the Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor and may set a DTC. Inspect the MAP sensor and the vacuum source for ice, moisture, or other restrictions.

Ignition ON, observe the scan tool MAP Sensor data parameter. Engine running, verify the scan tool MAP Sensor data parameter changes.

⇒	If the MAP data parameter does not change, refer toDTC P0106, P0107, or P0108 for further diagnosis.

Verify no vacuum leak exists.

⇒	If a vacuum leak does exist, repair as necessary.

DTCs P2104 00, P2105 00, P2106 00, and P2110 00 are informational DTCs. Correct the throttle actuator control (TAC) system DTCs that are set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle
Operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the freeze frame/failure records data.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
