TAC Motor Command: This parameter indicates the required duty cycle to maintain a desired throttle position. The scan tool will display a higher value if more effort is required to move the throttle to the desired position, such as physical resistance. The scan tool will display a lower value if less effort is required to move the throttle to the desired position.

TAC Direction: This parameter displays the commanded drection of the throttle blade by the TAC system. The scan tool will display CLOSED when the throttle is being commanded to the closed position. The scan tool will display OPEN when the throttle is commanded to an OPEN position.

TCS Control Signal: This parameter indicates the status of the traction control system affecting the power of the engine. The scan tool will display REDUCED when the traction control system is commanding reduced power by the control module. The scan tool will display NONE when the TCS is not commanding reduced engine power.

TP Sensor 2 Learned Min.: This parameter displays the learned minimum voltage for TP sensor 2 as determined by the control module this ignition cycle.

TP Desired Angle: This parameter indicates the desired throttle angle calculated by the throttle actuator control (TAC) module as commanded by the vehicle operator. The scan tool will display a higher value when the accelerator pedal is depressed, and a lower value as the accelerator pedal is released.

TP Indicated Angle: This parameter displays the angle of the throttle plate as calculated by the control module using the signals from the throttle position sensor(s). The TP indicated angle is a range of values indicating a low percentage when the throttle is closed to a high percentage when the throttle is wide open.
