[QUOTE="Lyrics36, post: 996887, member: 20925"] Looking for knowledge. I have not been able to ride for the last 5 weeks due to surgery on my foot. Today, I went out to start the bike for a short ride to check out how my surgery has progressed and my 2005 FJR(abs) wouldn't start. Bike smelled flooded almost immediately. I looked at the instrument panel and error code 16 came up which I then traced to "Throttle Positioning Sensor Stuck" I noticed their is a recall on this and I doubt the previous owner had this repair completed as I bought it with only 3,000 miles on it. Regardless, my question is 2fold: 1. Would a stuck TPS stop the FJR from starting? and 2. Is there a way to unstick it so I can drive it to the dealer rather than have to rent a trailer and haul it? Any advise is welcome. Thanks [/QUOTE]
