X type throttle

I have in the shop a 2004 X type 3.0 ... The throttle does not work... I have a code for the throttle actuator , but I dont think this is what failed... I have evap codes and a/c compressor relay codes that are coming up instantly with the throttle code , and the throttle and evap controls run off of the same fuse ... Has any one run into this before , is there a separate fuse that I am missing , Nodata (alldata) has diagrams but they are not correct.. I cant find the throttle relay.. Anyone know where it is ??? Thanks Alan

RE: X type throttle

eurotec, first, do you have a 2004 or a 2004.25 X-type? There are slight differences between the two. Assuming you have a 2004, if you open up the hood, open up the power distribution/relay box(above the driver's side wheel well) and look at it. On the edge nearest the bumper (towards the engine), you will see 3 large relays in the shape of an "L". On the inside of this "L", there will be a smaller relay, that is your throttle motor relay. The relay is known as "R11".

If you have a 2004.25 model, look in the back of your car at the fuse box back there (passenger side). If you look at one end of it, there will be a large cover. Remove the cover, you will find 4 relays back there (R7, R8, R9, and R10), R7 is the throttle motor relay.

Hope this helps. If you need any more info, just hollar.
