Default

is the traction control butterfly in the throttle body getting stuck?
or
the traction controller motor is activating the trc butterfly?


looking at the engine from the front its the left sensor on the throttle body and the right is the main butterfly

try disconnecting the battery and then spray some throttlebody cleaner

reconnect the battery after 10mins or so
