Can anybody give me any info on the idle and full throttle switch(es) on
this car? Still trying to fix my throttle problem - severe surging at
cruise speeds. May be a throttle cable problem. Did the fault code
checking and got a "2121" - idle switch. Bentley, at 25.106, says to check
for 0 ohms between terminals 1 and 2 with throttle closed. Got 1.3 ohms.
Then check for infinite ohms as throttle gap is opened 1/2 mm. No change.
There was 12vdc at terminal 2 at the mating connector with the ignition
switch on.
1. Does this indicate a bad idle switch? Or, could it be a throttle cable
misadjusted?
2. Where is the idle switch? Is it that jobby next to it with 2 phillips
head scews on the top?
3. Are the idle switch and the full throttle switch the same?
