Default Engine codes


I looked up the meanings. Can’t find driver circuit low. What is it? Any other help would be appreciated. 2017 RGS.

Guessing here, but one side of your electronic throttle "H-Bridge" driver has a short in it somewhere. Possibly both transistors on one side of the bridge are shorting to ground. Given the other codes though, I'd start with system voltage and confirm that first, then look for loose or broken wiring leading to the throttle motor.

I could be wrong, but looks to me like those are historical codes, I'd clear them and see if they come back.

As Keith pointed out, if you're currently afflicted with this problem, then I'd suggest checking the wiring between the ECU and the throttle-by-wire (ETC) motor on the intake. Look for obvious stuff first, possibly reseat some connectors, that kind of diagnostic. The DTCs point to a non-responsive throttle motor, which I'm assuming is your problem currently.

If you just have codes and no running issue, clear them out. Most likely wont return.

Given the reliability and redundancy of the throttle-by-wire system, I doubt this will be an "one-shot" problem. HD's Diagnostic tool probably has more detailed information compared with an OBC reader.

Did you or your mechanic do something with the engine before this started?
