Re: Fault Code 1253 Posted by Bernie [Email] (#1501) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Bernie) on Sat, 30 Jan 2021 14:20:31 In Reply to: Fault Code 1253, Sibelus, Sat, 30 Jan 2021 07:16:53 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Hello,
Yes that 1253 code is a throttle code and it is in limp home mode which attaches the cable directly throttle plate. Yes the car will barely idle because in limp home mode the motor can not open the throttle slightly to control the idle. Look up how to reset throttle limp home. You can search the board and get the proper procedure on clearing the code and resetting limp home to get it back to normal. After that it may work for a long time or a short time depending what is truly wrong with the throttle circuit or motor. Good Luck, Bernie
