| Description of the problem | I was driving about 40 mph when i realized that i had no control of the pedal/gas. When i looked at the dash board the check engine light was on and the cruise control light was flashing. I had to pull over and when i put the car in park the vehicle revved high. It took about 15 minutes before the car restarted. I was able to drive home. The diagnostic machine indicated that it was the throttle pedal position sensor. Code p2138. The throttle body was replaced. I am still having the same issues. |
