A few days ago I saw that my car does not want to accelerate when I step on the pedal, I scanned the car and it threw me these codes P0221 and P2135.

Anyone know what can it be?

I am attaching the testing for the P0221 as these codes are saying basically the same thing. So let's track down this issue and I am sure you will solve both codes.

Let me know if you have questions but this throttle position sensor is responsible for telling the PCM what position the pedal is in and when it has an issue it will not want to accelerate as you are seeing.

In order to find the issue we need to do this testing. Thanks
