TPS and Lambda Sendor Fault Code. Sorted.


Recommended Posts

Ok, messed with two things.

Back box was rotten so while waiting on the replacement I changed the oil, fitted a Jetex panel filter.

The engine run without the air filter in place while I checked the operation of the throttle body.

Next morning with the back box off the car was going to be driven to work so I could fit the backbox on a ramp when the engine check light came on.

The wife drove the car away from home and called the RAC.

Blue - Current fault - P0222 Throttle Position Sensor B Circuit Low Input

Yellow - Pending code - P0130 16514 Bank/Probe/Pre cat Lambda probe or circuit.

Unfortunately I wasn't with the car, so the RAC dude reset the faults, removed his computer and didn't bother to reconnect it when the engine check light reappeared so I do not know if the Lambda probe pending fault was still present although I suspect the problem is with the TPS.

As the car is an Auto, it has drive by wire throttle.

I found the fault, one of the plugs which connects the injector loom to the main loom was slightly damaged.

Found it by accident.

Gonna need a new plug, but a touch of superglue has cured it until I find the time to replace it :)
