CEL (code 12) Help please...
ok well i just got my 7, and the CEL comes on when i start the car, it goes off when i press the gas down, then come back when i let it off.
I did a check of the codes (wire in plug, - batt terminal)
And got code 12
Code 12 is:
12 Throttle sensor (full range)
What exactly does this mean lol? Besides a short, any ideas on what it could be? How would i go about finding the short, broken wire?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

short or repacing the whole unit, try the troubleshooting in the fsm, which i dont have a link to, but someone responding to this thread soon, probably will.

Being you just purchased the car, this might be an old code.To be sure, disconnect the neg terminal on the battery for about 1 minute, and some say to depress break pedal a couple of times to get the residual juice out, then reconnect the bat, and go driving. If it reappears, then attend to it.
