This error message is keeping me from having the darn thing inspected.... and IT's DUE !  |
The codes you mention can be caused by any one of a number of sensors. There are two sensors on the side of the air intake filter box which have the same part number. One controls the resonance flaps, and the other controls the egr valve. On my model, those two vacuum pressure transducers also receive a signal from an intake manifold sensor that is located on the left wheel well, and has a small black rubber hose attached to the intake manifold. Then there is the actual throttle position sensor itself located near the drivers side firewall. There a also two connection plugs under the intake manifold that have vacuum lines attached controlling the resonance flaps. Those connection plugs are small and it is very easy to damage the wiring. I would inspect all the vacuum lines to make sure they are all intact, then, I would also remove each electrical plug, spray it with electronics cleaner, and reinstall it. Hope this helps... __________________
