I Bought a 2005 4x4 1.2 panda in 2023
Lovely car in excellent tidy condition. Sadly after only driving about 60 miles the throttle pedal stopped working. Local garage fitted a replacement pedal and a intermotor new throttle body we found on ebay. Was running again But, the issue is not resolved. No communication from the pedal to the throttle body it seems, mechanic tried two different pedals, he was at a loss and too busy to keep scratching head over so I collected the car back. Thinking of asking an auto electrician to look at it . Any thoughts?

Is the engine check light on

Do you have a scantool / elm327 or similar

The simplest first course would be to log the live data from both tracks of the pedal

Is it starting and idling smoothly, but the gas pedal does nothing

Or is it starting and cutting out and you can't keep it going with the gas pedal
