Throttle switch or sensor failure
Posted: 17 Apr 2010, 07:49
Hello there,
I have a funny error code return. The car is Alfa 156 2.4 JTD 136 HP of year 2000. It does NOT have a throttle box on the air intake. Only next generation (140 HP and more) do have this box.
However, randomly (once a day or week), the error E6 throttle switch or sensor malfunction is reported by the injection lamp the scanner. Once the error shows, engine power and performance are reduced. I can reset the error and then things go back to normal.
I am unable to identify the failing device / sensor and I little angry to embark the PC and scanner for error resetting !
Anyone can help me with this ?
Thanks
