Hey guys my goblin has the 2008 LNF ss doner.
recently when I have been driving around, my goblin has been intermittently going into limp mode. It can be a 2 min drive or a 15 min drive when it kicks in. I turn on the car and turn it back on, then it’s fine again for another 2min-15min.
It’s throwing a p2138 code-“Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch D/E Voltage Correlation”
which in my understanding is that the accelerator pedal and throttle body sensors are not synced up? Iv replaced the pedal because many people said it was a common problem on the cobalt. I replace the throttle body with the built in TPS cause it was also throwing up a TPS code that is no longer there.
Iv checked the connections on both ends and Every thing looks good with no corrosion.
It happens in random times, accelerating hard or constant speed doesn’t make a difference. One time it seems to kick into limp mode then back out.
before I do diving completely into the wiring to the PCM I was seeing if anyone any advice?
It’s hard to tell If this was always a problem since the process of the build, because before recently completely finishing my goblin I have only drove it around the block a few times and to my parents once (about 3miles) with no problems at all.
Thanks!
