2001 Vauxhall Vectra acelerator problem

Car: Vauxhall Vectra
Year: 2001
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Hi i have tried to research this but come up blank so far. here goes every now and the i lose all response from the accelerator, usually after turning a corner. The engine is still running but no response. it comes back if i turn the ignition on and off again. any help would be amazing as this must be a small problem but have no idea where to look. thank you

Best guess would be stress tension on the wiring harness somewhere!
the engine moving when cornering and putting tension on a multi plug or wires.
First step is get it code read,
And don't hold your breath for it being a "small job"!
because if there's no code I,or anybody else, wouldn't know where to start looking either.
