Service Electronic Throttle Control

Looks like there are a lot of posts and questions about this. I had the light come on and did a mess of Googling and just wanted to post that before you do anything expensive, check the battery output. May be old news to the vets on here, but it turns out you can get that light to come on if your battery is wonky, which mine was. Put a charge on it and the light has been out for the last few days. Probably have a parasitic drain, which is another problem altogether, but at least this one is solved.

Good advice.

If your battery needed charging - it is probably on its way out. It is also a good idea to check and clean the battery terminal connectors and battery posts.
