change throttle body!!

[adamalmogia]

well as always a new fault

changed crank sensor last week after bo500 fault code & the light that looks like a pulse monitor was on all ok for a week...

now its not starting again takes up to 17 attempts!! so now i have ecu light all the time on a pulse monitor looking light intermitently
plugged it back in and it says throttle sensor... which is the part of the throttle body (pelum i think) so my question is if i get a new throttle body can i just bolt it on & plug it in or does it have to be programed to the ECU????

or would it be the engine wiring loom causing faults & making the ecu have PMT!

please help i hate it when my clio isnt very well

What machine did you use and more importantly, what code did you get? I ask as i'd be inclined to check the wiring and all connections before writing off and forking out for a new throttle body.

It was a mac tools fault finder, I can't remember the code but it said it was the tps

I've got a spare tb in the house. They are just bolt on. No programming required. Shameless plug

Does the car crank? Does the tb whine when you turn the key to ignition?

 

[adamalmogia]

How much you wanting for your tb? And yes it cranks pefectly & there's no whining or anything
