V6 Throttle problem

Post by Sebata »

Compliments of the new season all,

i have went through a very frustrating festive season as my truck has been standing still for a full month now. :cry:

i took it in because it couldn't start, that was sorted quickly as there was a problem with a starter wires due to bloody RATS :frustrated:

once that was sorted, engine light came ON :o: , when diagnosis was done, the Throttle sensor error code came on, after battling with it, was decided to put new Throttle sensor, even after that, the bakkie still starts but NO Throttle :frustrated: :cry:

please advice what else could be looked at to remedy the problem coz now my last option would be to take it to the stealers and remain broke the whole year and even miss paying my club membership :tease:

regards
Tau

Oh almost forgot, if the alternator doesn't charge there's no throttle as well...

Eish! I don't like 'fly-by-wire' throttles! :(
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
