Renault kangoo 2007 1.2 petrol trouble

Featured Replies

Hi All, I am having trouble with my dads kangoo disabled van, I put VCDS on it in OBD2 mode and it came up with P0638 'throttle body actuator bank 1 J338 implausible signal' so we removed the throttle body inlet valve and cleaned it up, drilled out the rivets holding the cover and checked inside as there's a motor and a hall effect sensor, hopefully reset its home position and it tan for a bit but then flagged up with a MIL with the same fault, again I checked it out inside the TB and it looks fine, trouble is renault have an extra letter on the end of the fault code to narrow it down to an actual component which VCDS doesn't show. Anybody worked on this fault ? Cheers Stuart

Hi Mr James, we tried a reset with my brothers car scanner but it didn't last long so we had to buy another throttle body and thats now working OK.
