      Question 07 Aveo Throttle Body Problem?? (Link to video also)

      aveo - YouTube

      I'm having a trouble finding out what the problem with my GF's car is. Egine light codes are P161B, P2106, P2110. The car starts and runs really rough, steping on the gas pedal does pretty much nothing. It will accelerate to about 1500 rpm's...and thats when I'm flooring it

      check engine light code states its a throttle position sensor issue.

      I first removed and cleaned the throttle body, reattached it made no difference. I was told the sensor is a part of the throttle body as a whole so I bought a replacement. I attached the new one and have the same exact performance. Any help or advice would help us save money and be appreciated.


      Link to video of car is pasted above and below.

      FOUND PROBLEM. IT WAS A HOSE LEADING TO MAP SENSOR THAT HAD BROKEN COMPLETELY IN HALF. Those codes had me looking everywhere but there. LIVE AND LEARN.

      Question when you put on the new Throttle Body . Did you take the batt cable off leave it of 3mins reconnect it then try it. re-scan.
      so it will read the new Throttle Body. Are you getting any new codes.

      I found the problem. It was not the throttle body or position sensor. There was a hose leading to the MAP sensor that was boken clean in half. Replaced it and it works fine now.
