2008 gives me trouble when its raining outside.
I own a 2008 max, the car goes into some sort of "limp mode" and will not accelerate even if I floor the gas pedal. The TCS OFF and SLIP lights come on together with the SES light. I have noticed that this happens when its raining outside. Anyone had this problem before?
I used my code reader and codes "P0643" "P2138" "P0451" came up. I appreciate any help, really want to fix this! |
Same exact issue. I'm assuming you resolved your problem by now.
What did you figure out? |

P2138 is the throttle pedal position sensor. If your engine only idles and does not rev up when you hit the gas pedal, that is more likely than not a bad joint in the TPPS sensor. I had this issue in the Quest and solved by opening up the sensor and re-soldering all 7 or 8 joints between the white PCB and connector pins. You can also get a reman sensor from Rock Auto, but I was in a pinch and had to solve this quickly so chose DIY.
