Default Could be a variety of things

Bentleys says to:

"Check angle sensor for throttle drive"

- First try a TBA, see if that fixes it.

If not:
- Go to measuring block 62 in the engine module.

Do the following:

- Observe display fields 1 and 2. Slowly depress accelerator pedal to full throttle position.
The percentage value in display field 1 should rise steadily, but without covering the full tolerance range between 3 - 93 %. The percentage value in display field 2 should also rise steadily but without covering the full range of values (in this case 4 - 49 %).

If the display values do not appear as described:

- Check voltage supply and wiring to accelerator position senders.

- Observe harness connectors for the following: Loose connectors, not properly engaged or corroded.

Still got problems:

- Check accelerator position sensors

-----------------------------------------

If the TBA didnt fix it for me it would be dealer time. :-/
