## 🔌 Function

Controls the flow through the inlet path on command from the control system, regulating how much air reaches the engine.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Poor or uneven running, or the engine sitting in a derated mode
-   Fault codes pointing at throttle position or air flow
-   Actuator sluggish, noisy or not moving through its full travel
-   Butterfly and bore found coked or gummed so movement is stiff
-   Shaft bushes found worn, giving play in the plate

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Check the wiring, connector and supply to the actuator before condemning the unit - a signal fault presents exactly like a failed throttle
-   Renew the flange gaskets or seals when refitting, and have the control system relearn the throttle position if the procedure calls for it
