Default No power to throttle body

Hi does anybody know what the 2 wires are on the 2 pin connector to the throttle body is one ground and the other 12 V? I just don't seem to be getting any power there and don't know why

I doubt either wire is a rigid earth, as the schematic has them both listed as B+ to drive motor.
TB drive motor will likely be driven in both directions (forcing open and closed), so both lines are likely to be able to be positive or negative with respect to each other depending on the throttle movement direction required.

Check your inertia switch hasn't tripped.
Then check F12 and F17 (both in the front power distribution fuse box).
