Hi the sticky throttle valve will cause strain on the pedal sensor and quite possibly fry its location discs I normally replace both items when one goes, IE the throttle body they generally wear as a set, if you were looking to buy a car thats cheap to repair you have unfortunately bought an Audi which will never be cheap to fix even the old ones, if you stick a new sensor on with the old throttle it will most likely kill the new sensor in record time, no part has an infinite life/milage span and often as not you have to bite the bullet and just replace the parts.

Yep, fusebox would be my first checkpoint

Sounds like you popped a fuse to me.

Ray. I have moved your question to a topic of its own to avoid conflicting responses in its original thread.

Apologies for the gripe, but the forum has recently suffered from a spate of what can be termed ‘Post and Run’ new members, who seem to think it’s perfectly acceptable to post a plea for help, and simply not return to view the help given. In a more diluted form, help is offered, but is very rarely acknowledged even via. a simple press of the Like button, leave alone a posted Thank You. The last part of the gripe is that we frequently have to ask for additional information, and this extra detail often never materialises. Please remember, everyone who posts replies do so without payment, but it certainly does cost them in time - in terms of the Moderators and Admin back up - a lot of time. So a special plea to all on here who post needing help:- please be respectful enough to acknowledge any help given, rather than simply accept it as a no-cost, no time of yours, free advice service. It’s wearing thin folks, so if you want to retain this service, please respect and acknowledge its benefits. Thank you all for reading this, and above all, agreeing to adhere to the respect that is needed to be shown. Kind regards, On behalf of the Moderators. Please note:- This request is to all members, not just new ones. p.s. Please avoid using non specific locations such as U.K., England etc. etc.
