simon da silva Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 Accelerator Pedal Release Position Learning Operation Procedure 1. Make sure that the accelerator pedal is fully released. 2. Turn ignition switch “ON†and wait at least 2 seconds. 3. Turn ignition switch “OFF†wait at least 10 seconds. 4. Turn ignition switch “ON†and wait at least 2 seconds. 5. Turn ignition switch “OFF†wait at least 10 seconds. ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark@Abbey m/s Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Seen this a few times normally it is bad contact on the throttle body connections. We tweak the male terminals to make a better contact normally sorts the problem we find. Any more questions ask away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spursmaddave Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I wouldn't assume because the fault code says it is the pedal that it is the pedal.... I had an ABS fault that turned out to be a rear light switch... Also if Mark says he has seen the problem before then chances are he is right...
