Hey guys Ive had my VAFC in my car for awhile now. A few days ago I noticed that my throttle percentage would not stay constant at closed throttle It would constantly fluctuate beween 0-7% I checked the Sensor Voltage and it too fluctuates. Between .200 and .375 volts. The VAFC reads 0% throttle at .4 volts (roughly) I checked my wires but it seems to be fine. Any Ideas on what it could be? Never did this before.

Its quite possible that you either

A) have a bad TP sensor

B) need to check all related wiring to find a poor connection

Not a common problem though..

Thanks for replying John. Heres another strange thing I noticed. When the Car is turned on (as in the engine not on) it reads the throttle just fine no flux. As soon as I start Her up and drive around for a bit thats when the read out will go all crazy on me. I guess Ill go back and check the Connections again.
