gas pedal suddenly not working!

[Teasmade]

never experienced it on neutral. just in gears 1 and 2. id take my chances. thanks

Just 1st and 2nd... No issues if you do low revs/high load in 3rd, 4th or 5th?

only one time on 3rd. no issues on 4th and 5th

tested again this morning. peculiarly, driving on a large speedbump induced the problem. happened again on 1st and 2nd. the worst part is when im revving from 2nd, it cuts monentarily on 2k,2.5k, and 3k.

That's truly weird.. Try to reset the ECU and observe if it will have any effect..

[gunlak]

already did by unplugging the battery and left it around an hour. didnt work.
will tryti reset it by removing the ecu fuse later.

[Mitz]

yes.. based on your description .. seems there are loose wires .. try to see also for signs of rodent bites..

[gunlak]

its like the fuel is being cut off and i need to pump the pedal one more time for it to work again.

[Mitz]

Sign of fuel pump going bad? or dirty fuel injectors?

[gunlak]

is there a way that i could check them on my own?

I assume a trip to the dealer isn't convenient? Seems like this would be a warranty issue, no?

I'm still voting for TPS.

[gunlak]

checked the tps on the pedal. everythings in place and working. sprayed some contact cleaner to be sure.

since i last posted about this, it mysteriously never happened again.though id still address it to the dealer on my next oil change. 1.5k km to go.
