Anyone know how to move throttle body to wot to visually inspect?
I tried with key on but no luck.
 
It can be done with the Rinda Diacom software, IIRC.

The rinda mercruiser scanner has a digital throttle motor test but it didn’t work on my engines. Not sure if that’s because it’s an older scanner. Calling rinda tomorrow.

Unfortunately, I noticed the test in the software but didn’t need to run it at the time. Now I can’t run it because, well a Toyota Tundra (see other thread), otherwise, I’d be able to confirm it’d work as my software + dongle was new as of a couple months ago.

I assume you’re using one of their handheld scanners?
 
Rinda says there is a software problem with some mercruiser pcms that cause this test not to work. They suggested I call merc to see if the pcm can be updated.
