Hi all, I have a 2001 Prado 1kzte manual.
Its been stuck in limp mode for months and have had mechanics and auto electricians look at it to no avail.
The DTC is 19(1). Throttle pedal position sensor open circuit...
Ive replaced the throttle position sensor and all the volts at plug are correct. Ive tried using a vdiag 200 to find a broken wire or something.. anything..
Ive tested continuity and volts at the ecu and I think? Theyre all what they should be.
Ive been stuck at my mums for 6 months cos I live fairly remotely and am at my wits end and am gonna cry soon.
Yes...Ima girl..
my heads kinda melted trying to sort this out...
So any advice would be very appreciated..
I really don't like to cry..lol..
Thanks in advance..
Please..anyone..help...
 
Mmmmm....that is a tough one.

Did you undo and cleaned all the earth points, all around the ecu and sensors? Or looked closely for a short on the wiring?

Usually such issues is a simple broken or damaged wire, so I would suggest to open up the wiring harnass and check each and every wire.

Is all the plugs making contact?

I hope you sort it out soon!
