A friend of mine and I took on the major task of replacing my starter. After about 5 hours+ the job was done. The car started with no problems, but then 2 new problems surfaced. 1). The VSC light came on. 2). I went to test drive the car and the car won't accelerate until the gas pedal is pushed half way down.

For the first problem,I tried using a scanner to clear the VSC code, didn't work.

For the second problem we tried adjusting the cable for the accelerator, with little to no success.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
matt

Sounds like it's coming from the throttlebody. Did you hook up all the wires to the sensors when putting everything back?

You might try a reset and see if it clears any codes.

what were the codes?

Thanks for the reply guys. I'm almost sure we hooked up all the connectors.
I used a scanner on it, but it said that there was no error codes shown. I thought this was weird since I currently have both the VSC and the check engine light showing up on the dash. We're going to disconnect the battery and see if that helps.

look up "VSC CEL check engine" in the search function. There's a problem related to (I believe) the TPS. It is kind of common, is your VSC off light on as well?

Did you put the TPS sensor back to its original position?
