It happened to mine yesterday, I hit the throttle and no respond for a second. I let of the gas and slowly hit the gas again to accelerate. I also have the 91 mm Soler throttle body.
My check engine light came on, I’ll have to see the code.

It has happened to me one time. Hit the gas to pass a car, the engine began to rev up, the transmission downshifted, but a second later the RPM's dropped off. I let off the gas and hit it again and it worked fine. 2025 Z06.

Rodslinger, we'd like to help you with this issue. Please contact us and we'll get to the bottom of it.

Note:

1. In valet mode (VL) and weather mode (WT) power is limited.

2. If two or more devices are paired to the controller, only one of them (1st one in range) will connect and control. The active mode will be that of the connected device or the one set manually on display, not the one you set last on any other device that is not connected.

I’ve had a Pedal Commander on my F-150 for years and bought a Solar for it because I wanted the lock feature. I put a Soler on my C8 at about 500 miles and love it.

BUT – the other day, my wife and I were out for a drive, I had a big rig in the left lane, faster cars coming up in the right, but I had time, so I punched it and moved over… nothing at all. No gas, nada. I immediately pulled back in behind the rig, and I had power again.

Has anyone ever put the pedal down and had nothing? It now has me wanting to remove it because that could have ended badly. Another thing I’ve noticed is that a lot of times, if I get on the throttle hard when I let out, the car doesn’t shift and revs way the hell up, and I have to hit the paddle on the wheel to upshift it.

Has anyone else experienced any issues, or do I have a faulty module?

I've never had an issue with my Soler Engineering throttle controller.

I do have a CORVETTE TODAY discount code for you, if you would like to purchase any Soler products.
