Throttle position sensor, throttle body reprogram

Chances are the old one was okay and it is the throttle pedal position switch that is the problem. can you tell me if there are any codes?

Here is a guide to help you get started:

Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

Cheers

The codes i got were P2173, P0123, P0222, P2111. so you need a scan tool you cannot do it yourself manually?

You do not need to have it programmed in it should relearn itself after a driving a few miles. you might need to keep your foot on the gas a little while it is calibrating.

Before i changed out the throttle body/TPS I cleaned it out with throttle body cleaner it did not work. then i got fuel injector cleaner and sprayed it on all the vacuum lines and around the intake manifold and there was no leaks.

P0123-TPS 1 circuit high.
P0222-TPS 2 circuit low
P2111-Electronic throttle control unable to close.
P2173-High airflow/vacuum leak detected (slow accumulation).

I had this problem and the throttle actuator fixed it. I found a used one for $100.00 and all set, no relearn, runs perfect.

I want to replace it, but I need to know its location, before I start taking things apart.

Hello, I am Danny.

I have attached a picture for position sensor. It is attached to the gas pedal assembly. The electrical harness disconnects at location on picture #1.
There is also one as part of the throttle body, it would depend on the exact code


Hope this helps and feel free to ask if you have any other questions.Thanks for using 2carPros.com. Danny-

i have a 2007 chrysler 300 limited car. my engine light came on and it indicated that the electronic throttle control and on the other side it have shown a picture of a car with tire marks on it. also my car engine runs high and low that i have to put my car in park and turn my car off and the restart it. someone told me that it is also known as the throttle position sensor. tell me is that the right piece that i am speaking of , if so where would you recommend i buy it from.
thank you for your time

so what does that mean when that light show?

Have the accelerator pedal sensor, manifold absolute pressure sensor checked and tested -its not listed having a TPS sensor

i have a 2007 chrysler 300 touring car. my engine light came on and it indicated that the electronic throttle control and on the other side it have shown a picture of a car with tire marks on it. also my car engine runs high and low that i have to put my car in park and turn my car off and the restart it. someone told me that it is also known as the throttle position sensor. tell me is that the right piece that i am speaking of , if so where would you recommend i buy it from.

you need to have your car scanned for codes and let me know what the exact code numbers are not ode descriptions? That's are starting point from the info you gave I can't tell you what your car needs.

Please I need help, I've been having so much h problems with my etc light. The lighting volt keep coming out. I've inpected the ground wires, checked for leaks, installed a brand new EGR valve, throttle throttle body. Checked for. Urned or bad wires. I need help can someone help me

Also can the coolent sensor set the lighting volt out and affect the throttle body

The first thing I need from you is for you to have it scanned for codes?then let me know the exact code numbers not code descriptions in the engine computer.That's are starting point so we have a idea what the lights are all about.Also I wouldn't see a coolant sensor effectt the throttle body except maybe the idle.

It keep throuwing p0016 p2112 2 codes..

I would like to explain in detail what I have done. When all this started codes p0016 and p2112 kept coming out. I checked for ground wire not properly touching. Send and clened all confections to ground (everything)

Kept happening so I went out and bought a brand new electric throttle body. Properly installed it and it kept coming out.

Lighting volt

And same codes

Started looking deeper for leaks and damage. Noticed my EGR was very dark and needed change. So I bought a brand new one. Properly installed it my self

It kept coming back. Look deeper. Nothised the PVC volve was not looking to good either bought a brand new one and properly installed it myself. Checked for and signs of leaks damage. Didn't see it could hear. I removed the EGR pipes conected to EGR pipe and motor. Looked fine just put new seals on both ends for insurance of no leaks.

Checked battery for proper voltage car off 12.46 good and on 14.somthing. Meaning battery is working and alternator is doing is job

Someone told me is a new body throttle is installed reprogramming is requiered. Don't know how true that is but would like to know if that and issue. I never programmed the throttle. But it feel fine in the beginning and lighting volt comes. Like if is forgotten the throttle. Or something close to it

I need your engine size ?so I can look into those codes.Also the throttle body I have only seen a throttle relearn not a programming.Let me know the engine size iam headed to church right now so I won't get back to you right away.

And again codes p0016 and p2112 keeps coming out. Question could code p0016 be related to throttle meaning lighting volt? Also I have a alarm on my car not factory would that affect the throttle? I had a system very loud on it and I took it out thinking it could have been the problem I was wrong. Last and final question. I have 22 star Inc rims on my car could the rims be affecting throttle? Meaning could the rims be to heavy for it.?

2.7

Ok sorry for the distraction on your important visit to church speak with when your done. And thanks

The code p0016 top fix is a bad cam sensor then you could have a timing belt that jumped.As far as the P2112 goes there aren't any repair tips top fixes etc there isn't any I see in my repair info.It says the throttle plate doesn't give feed back to where it's supposed to on start up.

So where I stand with this harrable issue im having fixing this 0016 could it salve 2112

They look like two separate issues I don't see how there related PLease answer my question how quickly does the code p0016 reset after you clear it?Iam not there to see anything for my self.Do you have a multi meter to do some testing?

Yes I have a meter and code reader.

Once erasing the codes p0016 come right back like 2min after engine start up

O for got to mention I bought a new sensor for the code 0016

It still came on

Code I mean, I checked the wire harness for the sensors it has volt coming out of it

So don't really know if it could be the brand new sensor or timing chin or camshaft

So you replaced the cam sensor?you never mentioned that before.

Yeah I did
