VW Throttle positioner motor/Idle control
VW Throttle positioner motor/Idle control
It sits on the same plug as the standard throttle pot, and is sprung loaded to return - my first thought was PWM control - however it can also drive itself closed (negative direction - at full negative there's almost no gap around the throttle plate at all) and the spring works both ways to return it to it's default position.
Hope someone can help me out, I have an outline diagram of the circuit if need be (from VW manuals!)
