P2138 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Fault

[SRaven]

Hi Guys,

 

I need some help with an error code I found on my 350z this morning.

 

Not really what I needed first thing Monday morning but the car died on a round about and then was very unresponsive when depressing the throttle.

 

I have reset the fault code and the engine management light has gone, but I'm curious if anyone else has had any issues similar.

 

I have a D1 throttle controller fitted and have for the past few days been running her on SP7 (love the throttle response it gives),would this have any impact on this fault occurring?

 

Thanks

 

Guys

P2138 can only be a couple of things,

 

Sensor (Obviously)

 

OR

 

Poor electrical connection circuit,

 

Did you splice any wires to fit the D1? Has limp mode gone away since EML reset?

I bought the car with it fitted but the fitment looks oks good and no spliced wires.

 

Reset the code at lunch but driving home it re-appeared, plan tomorrow is to remove the controller reset the code and see what happens.

 

I really hope it's not a fault in the controller it's so much fun to drive with it fitted, but then again iv not looked at how much a new sensor is.
