Welcome to the forums.

Do your Power light flash or stay steady when you turn on the ignition?

Hi I got a friend to hook up a diagnostics and it told us that there is a problem with the throttle control sensor so I can get that sorted then all I need to do is take the dash of and see why the speedo isn't working as it has been changed from kmh to mph before I had it and when you turn on the ignition it sticks at 14mph even in tick over
