Well today I was going to take the Lancer out of the garage & put my Avalon in take the Avalon tags & get it transfer. Turn on Lancer went to limp mode giving me a p2102 code, I think it something about the throttler sensor.

Time to shop around.
My luck car in garage 3 yrs, everytime it something new. About to just burn the sucker.

 

did you prep it for storage before storing it?

 

No. It's been in my garage since the slave broke, but my father in law kept coming home to visit while I was working, he kept turning the car on to warm up & the clutch & pressure plate broke. Then I burn myself at work with 213 degree water & was out of work for 2yrs. I'm working 7days to catch up, by April this year I got everything up to date. Started fixing the Ralliart.
Sorry for the long story.

 

You talking about the Throttle Position Sensor?

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/04...-sensor-4.html

 

throttle position sensor is on the throttle body assembly...

 

You sure about that? I just replaced my tps sensor and it was right behind the pass side headlight. No where near the throttle body.. maybe we are talking about something different.

 

APPS, or accelerator pedal position sensor is located behind the passenger side headlight

 

Delete.

 

ah yes! My bad lol! You are correct.

P2102 is the APPS
Easy fix. Order from mitsubishiparts.net about $200. Takes 15 minutes to complete.

P2121 is the TPS on the TB

 

This.

People tend to confuse the codes for this. Also I've been getting this code pop up for the last 2 years each few months. Just turning off the car and starting again gets you off limp mode and the SES light goes off or just fork over $~200 and get it fixed

 

The code is p2102 so another $200 and she running. My wife was telling me $500 for clutch, then it was more $ to get the transmition oil replace & RRM clutch line,them it was $124 for transmition bracket that broke, then it was $24 for slave cylinder, now it $200 for another thing you need to sale or trade in this piece of beep, I told her if I trade in the dealer will rape me & everything is brand new in the car & it only has 18,000 mile.
Theres car here in Fl. With 120,000 miles & they want close to 8 to 10 grand. Her reply I don't want it if you drove that car more than 6 mounth it was to much, it's yourfault no you wanted a turbo in magging wife voice.
