EPC Light. HELP

Can anyone help ?

So my 1L Y Reg lupo broke down the other day. 

The EPC light came on, on the dash and I lost all acceleration. The car still idoled but very poorly. Switched it off and started it again but wouldn't start first time.  

I have replaced the throttle body and the mechanism on the throttle pedal and still nothing. 

Hooked it up to vag com and a snap on system on the computer and both saying a fault with throttle body and the mechanism on the pedal. 

Can anyone shed any light on this please? 

Thanks ?

Sounds like you have a problem with the wiring loom between the pedal sensor and the throttle body, broken wire / poor connection either at the pedal or at the thottle body. Call a good auto electrician probably not a  simple DIY fix as the ECU is between the two.
