2.2 Puma throttle pedal issue

Evening,

I have a 2.2 Puma with no power on throttle. Drives but takes a while to get the speed up. When releasing throttle pedal there is a good few second delay before revs drop.

No fault codes but the throttle position sensor only reading 60% when pressed fully. Tried swapping with a known good throttle pedal and same issue

Does the pedal need to be calibrated when fitted? Or am I looking at a wiring issue?

Any tips welcome

Thanks

I have a similar issue and I'd be curious if anyone has an answer.

check the low range sensor on the transfer box. when the ecu thinks you are in low it changes the mapping to what you are describing Roaming around 🇳🇴🇨🇭

Clutch switch possible, bridge it to see if it is culprit you’ll soon know.
If it seems better all of a sudden, leave it bridged or replace clutch switch.

I can’t say it is that, but worth investigating as clutch switch cuts torque and can cause a rev hang as well. Diesels Lives Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️

Finally got around to bridging the clutch switch and made a world of difference. The throttle responds immediately and doesn't hang anymore. Thanks for that tip!

Not sure if it's me getting used to the difference in response now, but the throttle is pulsing now. It doesn't do it all the time, but I either have to put my foot into the throttle or let off completely to not pulse. There doesn't seem to be an in between. Any thoughts on that? Thanks!

I spent nearly a year tracking down a pulsing throttle on my 2.2. Turned out to be wear on the loom where it comes through under the body, rubbing against the tub. Had worn through and was shorting on the bodywork.

Worth checking out as it was easy to spot once worked out.
