As you may or may not know I have been putting a new clutch in my car... this is done now!
But When I first got the car the check engine light was flashing..
I thought this may disappear with leaving battery off whilst did clutch (been off a month now with me being on hols etc.)
Reconnected it and started the car.. check engine light still on... doh.
It Flashes Twice Slowly, and twice fast
from what I can work out on the net... this is fault code 22 - Throttle Position Sensor
I presume this is the bit next to where the outlet pipe from intercooler goes into inlet manifold...
Are these prone to failure, Scooby have quoted 132.14 +vat for the Part, and I dont want to pay that, if it isnt faulty... can it been cleaned?? or can I check it with a scope or multimeter?? Anybody know what impedience it should be if so?
Also I have noticed that if you blip the throttle hard and fast the engine revs drop and then the car revs.. and then if you revs fthe car it hunts a bit and then settles back a 1000rpm.
Help... Theres beer in it if it (is that bad english or what?) costs less that 155.26 inc vat.

right...
Have checked knock sensor.... removed off car looks ok? checked with multimeter and has circuit...
Anybody know how much they are...
I am assuming that it is not the engine as it showed up before I started the engine.
Where does the wire run to... anybody got a circuit diagram... so I can trace the cable and check it is ok... does it go straight to the ecu and if so what colour wire / pin??
Car is 94uk turbo
