Does any one know where the throttle position switch is on a 2.8 CRD Cherokee?
I have error code P 0150 showing

On a diesel the Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor as it's called is at the base of the pedal. On a petrol the P0150 code is an O2 sensor code. Are you sure you have the code correct? I'd have expected maybe P0121 which is throttle position sensor.
