Stepper motor probably requires a reset!

Wee note: stepper motor has to be adjusted by T4, can't do anything with it yourself.
When I visited Brian earlier this year he discovered my stepper motor had never been adjusted! He'd never seen one so far out. |

Turn ignition on to position 2, don't start the engine.
Now press the throttle pedal through it's entire stroke five times. Switch off ignition, then start the car. Report back please Brian |

Good to hear. There's not much Brian doesn't know about our cars.
