What should I do if my throttle response is low?
The first place that an automotive technician will likely inspect when the throttle response is low is the fuel filter. The filter is responsible for removing debris to avoid engine issues and to improve fuel economy.
Why does throttle control go away on my Harley?
Guess what same problem. Runs fine then engine light comes on and throttle response is dangerous. I shut her down and wait and it goes away for awhile. It keeps rearing its ugly head. Also it disables the cruise control when it acts up.
When did no throttle response engine light come on?
No throttle response engine light came on, 2010 street glide. Ya’ll just need to go backward in time, a time when things were simpler-go find ya a nice Evolution powered bike with a CV carburetor !! Don’t worry about what they think down at ” bike night”-heh heh, best to all-nothin but love ! I just paid my ‘11 ultra off.
Can a poor throttle response be a bummer?
Poor throttle response can be a bummer for most drivers, particularly those who relish in high-performance vehicles. Luxury imports like Porsche, Mercedes, Audi, and BMW should be driven with vigor; there is no place for throttle issues.

Why is my throttle control on permanent limp mode?
Let the silicon dry before reconnecting the connector to the TPS, this prevents the silicon from POSSIBLY running to the pin, preventing pin to pin contact. (Silicon on the TPS pins is a very bad thing = permanent limp mode until you remove all silicon from the pins and TPS plug.)
Where is the throttle actuiator on a Harley Davidson?
Also check the electronic throttle actuiator that slides into the handlebar and plugs in to the harness. These can fail but not very common. There’s also a green connector inside the fairing so you will need to remove outer fairing skin to find it and check for corrosion.

What happens when the throttle position sensor fails?
The throttle position sensor can fail in several ways, all of which result in poor fuel economy at best, and performance limitations that may create safety hazard for you and other motorists at worst. This sensor can fail gradually, or all at once. In most cases, the Check Engine Light is illuminated if a TPS failure is detected.

Is there a way to reset the throttle body?
This method is almost foolproof as long as all ECU control parameters are within their normal ranges. Resetting The Throttle Body Calibration (this step is conditional) A Rough Idle or a SES can sometimes be caused by a change in the throttle body position sensor calibration.
What are the symptoms of a bad throttle position sensor?
This is another failure mode of the TPS, which indicates that it is falsely limiting the power being requested with your accelerator pedal foot. You may find that your car will accelerate, but not beyond a speed of 20 – 30 MPH. This symptom often goes hand in hand with loss-of-power behavior.
What happens if the throttle module has malfunctioned?
If the module has malfunctioned, the car will operate in a “Limp Mode.†This is a function that allows the car to be run at a low speed in order to move the vehicle from hazardous areas. There are other symptoms that will cause similar issues with the throttle.
What happens if you dont do a throttle body relearn?
If you don’t do a relearn procedure, the PCM will “hunt” for a new baseline idle. It will eventually learn it on its own, but it may take over a week of driving, during which time you will experience high and low idle speeds and possibly rough idle. 1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
Why is the throttle not working on my Harley Davidson?
Verify that the throttle plate moves freely when engine is not running. If it does not, the TCA needs to be replaced. Poor ECM connections seem to be the most likely cause and may be aggravated by the seat pan making contact with the ECM connector. Often, this is due to the installation of an aftermarket seat.
How to relearn throttle on a new battery?
Throttle relearn procedure/New battery/Won’t Idle or Run Step 1: Turn the key to the ON position but do not start. Step 2: Press the accelerator pedal ALL THE WAY to the floor and hold it for 40 seconds. Step 3: Release the accelerator pedal ALL THE WAY and count for 35 seconds. Step 4: Press the
