Detailed Product Description

The Hitachi ETB0069 throttle body features an electric actuation system that replaces traditional mechanical linkages, allowing for more accurate throttle response and improved fuel delivery. It includes a built-in throttle position sensor to monitor the throttle plate angle and communicate real-time data to the engine control unit (ECU). The dual 60.0 mm bore diameter design supports efficient air intake, contributing to consistent engine performance. The connector uses a male blade terminal style with six terminals arranged in a 4+2 configuration, ensuring secure electrical connections. This throttle body does not include a gasket, seal, or idle air control motor, so those components must be sourced separately if needed.

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the vehicle’s battery is disconnected before installation to prevent electrical shorts. Since this throttle body does not include a gasket or seal, use a compatible gasket to prevent air leaks. Verify connector compatibility with the vehicle’s wiring harness, noting the oval connector shape and blade terminal style. Calibration or relearning procedures may be required after installation to synchronize the throttle position sensor with the ECU. Professional installation is recommended for accurate fitment and function.
