My 94 Disco is giving me problems, the engine is cranking over but will not start. I checked the digital readout and code 17 is on the readout, what is the throttle potentiometer?. Another question, to clear the display it states to disconnect the serial link mating plug, where do you find this plug? any help would be appreciated.

TPS is the black thing with wires on it at the end of throttle shaft. To reset just disconnect the battery.
