3.6 TDV8 Throttle Position Sensor fault - Code P2138-62 | |
Hi all, I've got a bit of a head scratcher going on with my L322 3.6 TDV8...
a few days ago, i noticed the binnacle throw up a warning: "Suspension lowered for safety". This message quickly disappeared and since then i have done around 30 miles.
Fast forward to yesterday and my truck has now thrown up a series of warnings including the dreaded Red engine fault warning /it will not go above 5mph...
Ive plugged in a scanner and as expected i had a list of misc. fault codes so after a full clear, the one that immediately reappears is 'P2138-62' "Throttle / pedal position sensor/ switch D/E voltage correlation"
I have replaced the throttle pedal with a known good unit but the problem still persists.
Looking at live data i notice that the pedal angle only ever reaches a maximum of 19 degrees on the data steam and the D/E voltages are not as expected (one approx half voltage of the other)
Has anyone here had any experience with an issue similar or can suggest where i could look next. Im assuming theres a position sensor on the throttle body that could need a clean up?
Any advice gratefully received!
