#3: Re: CENSOR FAULT ON ACCELERATOR PEDAL Author: DREWDEN, Location: huddersfieldPosted: Mon Jun 27, 2011 3:12 pm ---- Very nicely said LEE. It is the throttle position sensor. where's it located, my friend who did the diagnostics said it was in the pedal.

Just wandering? does the sensor affect the MPG you do as I've noticed a drop recently.
#7: Re: Sensor Fault on Accelerator Pedal Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Mon Jun 27, 2011 3:48 pm ---- Probably will do as the throttle and revs are all over the place.
Was ridiculous when mine was faulty, could never hold a constant speed.
