    Hi guys

    My truck has code P1127 set and no throttle response until the mechanical lever kicks in. I think the issue is a loose ground for the actuator. Does anyone have a diagram that shows the location of the grounds for the ETCS circuit/throttle actuator?

    Thanks

    I highly recommend checking and posting up in this thread: https://www.tundras.com/threads/throttle-body-actuator.130009/

    Note: It's SUPER COMMON, as you'll see in that other thread, for A-pillar and cracked/rotten windshield leaks to send water down your wire bundles and either rot out important connections, or get into the fusebox and rot it out (pics & pics & pics, it happens a LOT).

    That's the first place I'd be looking, is for traces of water damage. It's been the cause of P1127 on this forum on numerous occasions. I've helped at least a couple people in the last couple of years, @peanut and @elvis233 who traced back to water-entry-corrosion in the connections over by the fusebox.

    Thanks for the advice - I hadn't come across that thread with my searches.
