Nissan Repair: code p1126, nissan frontier, relay circuit


Question
where is the throttle control motor relay located on my nissan frontier 2wd v6, it tell me probable causes are open or short circuit condition,throttle control motor relay circuit open, or failed relay, any help would be great.

Answer
Billy,

The relay is under the hood.  And, that is what the P1126 indicates.  A P1128 would be the throttle motor itself.  So, only being a relay you should get out for $100 if you have them do it and reset the code.  I would check with the parts department for the part and see what it looks like to see if you want to do this yourself.  It is not that difficult to replace.  Resetting the code could be done if you have an Autozone or Checker and purchase the part from the store you expect to purchase the relay from.  They will clear the code for free.
