my 93 9000 CSE- over the last week, with increasing frequency, intermittent, with no obvious causes, the TCS light has come on and simultaneously, engine goes lumpy and accelerator pedal moves freely but has no effect - no throttle. After several tries, and a rest, car performs normally, unitl the next (unpredictable) episode, 1 minute to 10 hours later.
Found reversed vacuum lines which seems to have fixed the 'no-limp home' problem. Diagnosis says throttle body sensor and crank position sensor faulty. Swapped out throttle body, but still have this intermittent TCS light/loss of power problem. Has anyone had such a problem? Does anyone have suggestions?
Related symptoms (?): persisting from some weeks before - partial failure of fule economy display, bargraph works but digital display say 99.9. I feel this is pointing to (one of the) so called computers, or a wiring fault. Any suggestions, please let me know.
