sounds like the throttle cable is stuck or jammed
Thanks guys for such a fast answers :thumbright: :thumbright: :thumbright: :thumbright:bigwheelsturning said:I just typed a whole page and hit the wrong button and now have to do this again. :roll:
Fault code #37 on a Type III Tmax, is a "stuck Fast Idle Plunger", and the result is high rpm's when it should be idling.
Have you changed the cooling system fluids? The FIP uses the cooling system (heat pulls the pin to the throttle body back) to tell the Fuel Injector throttle body when the engine is either hot or cold, and gives the engine more fuel if it needs it when cold, and none when it's warm. It goes from either being open or closed (I don't know which), when the engine temps are up, and stops giving extra fuel to the engine.
If it's not the cooling system, it's the FIP being stuck keeping the extra fuel going to the engine, and needs to be replaced. Get the O-ring too if you have to get a new one.
It could be a broken throttle cable, but I don't know if it would give you the code #37 as a result. That sort of information is what's needed here in a "Tmax Service Problems/Questions" section. But I doubt if the hosts will ever add one for us.
The first parts correct, but the last part got "Lost in Translation" :wink:Garth said:Translation: What he said was:

Cheers anyway i got the idea thanks , and i cant read Chinese also lol.bigwheelsturning said:The first parts correct, but the last part got "Lost in Translation" :wink:Garth said:Translation: What he said was:

before i was riding 2003 and it was riding like a dream not effected by any bumps on the road , is there some change can do to make the suspensions more soft because on speed it kind of scarey when you have small bump and you almost been trowed :bounce: form your sit maybe change to other suspension or adjusting i never find some info about that online :bounce:bigwheelsturning said:Glad to see that "it was" an air bubble in the cooling system at the Fast Idle Plunger that was causing the trouble. When you change out the cooling fluids on any car, truck, or scoot, you have to let the thermostat open so the water can flow through the system for a minute or so to get rid of trapped air.
My 09 Tmax is a rough ride on a cobbly surface too.
I have the same problem, sometimes it happens others not. When it happens I stop the engine and I'm sure that error 37 appears, I start the engine again waiting for a few seconds, I have to tell that the engine dont start at once, its hard a bit to ignite the spark I insist on and the engine start again. In error 37 the rpm is around 1800 to 2000. After that trick I mentioned above the rpm goes normal again as it should be, 1500rpm.If you changed the water in the cooling system, did you let the engine run with the cooling system "pressure cap" off until the "thermostat" opened, and you could see water flowing in the "filler tube" (under the pressure cap). You want the system to run that way a while at idle, so all the "air" in the system is plurged, and only water remains in the cooling system. Turn off the engine, and put the pressure cap back on. Don't let the cooling water get too hot, and have it boil over. My parts manual only shows that the Fast Idle Plunger is a part of the throttle body, and only has one part number for the whole thing. Ref# 1 Throttle Body Assy 4B5-13750-10-00 My service manual shows the Fast Idle Plunger (FIP) as a separate part with O-ring, but not in my parts manual. But both of them are for the 09 Type III Tmax. Hope this helps. I will see if I can find something online. Remove the cover panels so you can see if the throttle cam in the injector body actually moves in both directions when you open and close the throttle with the RH grip.
