2021 Peugeot 508 Throttle Control and ACC problem

Unread post by CGXIII »

Hello! I am having some issues in my Pug 508, the adaptive cruise control shows an error message, but only every so often, not every day or every start and is usually ok after i restart the car. Yesterday another error showed up and after the shop diagnosed it it showed an error on the ETC - throttle control. Could these 2 be linked? the shop told me i should clean the throttle control first and see if it persists, they say this can also be the issue with the ACC error. Does anyone have any leads? Thanks in advance and sorry for my lack of english skills. VIN NUMBER: VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff].

It may well be a throttle based problem so have a look at this video and then I'd advise cleaning the throttle body as shown and then carry out the reset procedure number 1 in the video. Good luck :)

And you may find this video helpful too:

Also, battery has been changed recently (like 2 days before errors started appearing), first batch has been cleaned, maybe do i need to reset something related to the battery? Thanks.
