am I chatting with today?
This is indeed a code for the electronic throttle body and the reason the car is in failsafe.
There is one fuse you can check, it's possible it's blown and causing the whole issue.
It's in the fuse box under the hood. I highlighted it's location on this diagram.
Let me know!
