Odd in that the CEL was coming on when I was loosing power, at least for a sec or two so you'd think there would be some codes associated with that.ĭid some more checking at home, pulled the go pedal assembly. Since the thought of driving thru Denver rush hour with an engine that would quit at random times wasn't too appealing, I turned around and headed home and actually made it home just fine.Īgain, I tried pulling codes, none in the ECU either stored or partial. Pulled over to the side, turned the engine off and on, but the ETC continued to flash. I also was loosing power and the CEL light flashed on a couple of times but did not stay on. Well, looks like I'll have a chance to figure this out after all Was heading into Denver this afternoon, when the ETC light started flashing again.

I don't think you will never get a definitive answer on this one, looks like the manufacturer wants it that way and even the dealership doesn't really know what it exactly imply !įrom personal experience, I can trigger the light ( solid, not flashing with no limp mode.) by messing with the ECT !
ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL RED LIGHTNING BOLT ON DASH HOW TO
Just curious if anyone here has a definitive answer about what might be causing this lightning symbol and how to fix it. Possible tranny issues, but again I did not notice anything obvious when driving it today. Someone said wheel speed sensors, and I suppose it might be that but I usually see some ABS or other faults with those. Alternator was one, but don't think it is that, got good voltage at the batt when running. I did try turning the engine off and restarting it, starts just fine but within a few secs that dash symbol starts blinking again, just idling the engine in park.ĭid a search on the forum, and it seems that there could be a bunch of different things associated with this error light from the various threads. No CEL and no stored or pending codes, and everything seems OK with the engine and running. OK, don't know if this dash symbol has a name, but it looks like a lightning bolt between two slightly curved lines, on the lower left part of the dash.Īnyway, this symbol started flashing red and beeping just as I was pulling into my driveway tonight.
