This is my 3rd xk8 and they all have had the same problem. I can’t imagine that every xk8 out there x doesn’t have the same issue.

the electrical wire loom plus onto the throttle body . Driver side on US model. The throttle pedal position sensor female plug from wire harnes to throttle body crumbles to pieces when you just basically touch it. The car won’t run without it. The TPS on passenger side is different.

Has or does anyone have a replacement source? Seems to be a huge issue.

any help appreciated. Thanks in advance , scott

If you mean the PPS plug, it might be this one?

Whereas I think the TPS is Tyco/TE econoseal 3, with the small slots on either side and the bottom...

 

Very good information! Mine hasn't disintegrated yet, but is broken thanks to the carnicero who worked on the car for the PO.

 

Received the new PPS plug in mail and it fits perfect!! Saved the day😎
