      I just bought a 2005 L300 at an auction. It has 25k original miles however the check engine light and it’s down on power. I can’t get it to go past 15mph. It’s giving me the codes P2119, P0638 and P2100. They all seem to be for the Throttle Actuator control. What could be the problem?

        Check your wiring first and foremost. Then start looking into the ecu and throttle body afterwards. I have replaced an ecu on one and a throttle body on another car. Let me know if you need schematics. Do you have a scan tool you can see live data with? And can you clear the codes, then the car returns to normal for a short time?

          I have Torque Pro on my phone I use it as my scan tool. Not sure if it can record live date. I’d like the schematics if you have them. I clear the codes and it runs the same. They come back right away. when I start the car cold. First time of the day it runs fine for about 1-2 minutes but then starts to misfire.

            Not sure how well you will be able to see this picture as its from my phone. But your looking for 2-4 volts on both the yellow and brown control wires to the throttle body. Also obviously check your other wires for a short, or open aswell.
