Hi Bart, I just got my 2018 EcoDiesel back from the same issues. It’s been going on for about 3 months. At first I thought it was a bad MAP sensor but after replacing that, the issue still persisted. I took it to the dealership and they diagnosed a bad throttle actuator. I also had to wait 3...

...next day. I thought it may have been dirty fuel or something. Now I have recurring P0402 and P0299 codes and a service electronic throttlecontrol light that comes on quite often. I just got it back from my most recent trip to the dealer where they performed all recalls, did an oil change and...

We limped it home but couldn’t get over 55 mph and it...
So I have a 2016 ecodiesel showing a p0402 code and a “service electronic throttlecontrol” message I have replaced the egr cooler and valve, cleaned the egr diffuser, and replaced the map sensor. Any ideas what else could be causing these codes?
...Now my problem and solution!
Drive recently I got a bell sound then a lightening bolt with a message that stated "service electric throttlecontrol. Engine went into fail safe, and radiator fan came on full blast. Cel

...no notice, Low Oil Pressure. I checked the oil it was fine. I started the truck up, drove 1 mile, it quit again, said Electronic ThrottleControl. I waited a few minutes, started it up, drove 300 yards turned it off. Had it towed, they said lots of factory recalls, it has to get towed to...
2018 Ram Ecodiesel 54,000 miles, engine blew up. Ram put in new engine gave 2 year warranty. 3.5 years and 73,000 more miles. The truck shut down, no notice, Low Oil Pressure. I checked the oil it was fine. I started the truck up, drove 1 mile, it quit again, said Electronic ThrottleControl.
My 2015 had most of those issues as well. It ended up being corroded wires starting at the ecm and subsequent plugs thereafter. They charged me $1200 to replace four plugs and clean up the wires. Lasted almost a year and now another service def error communication error which will be more bad...
I ran out of diesel once and the throttle opened up more than it should and send the code as well. My friend connected a scanner and cleared the code. No parts or disassemble at all.
...the tone wheel under warranty. 2014 with 100 k. Its a known problem. Now I've got the lightning bolt back on this time says service throttlecontrol. Local dealer All Star ram states they have but 1 tech and he doesn't do warranty work because it doesn't pay enough. WTF

...came up twice, which I thought was odd. So I take it down the highway to regenerate and about 10 miles in it tells me to service throttlecontrol.
Google leads me to some posts on here that suggest the MAP is clogged. So being the cheapest option, I pull it and the pipe. The pipe's got a...

I’m at wits end on this, I bought a 4x4 2016 Ram Eco diesel w 134,000 miles 2 months ago that I have been getting ready to flat tow behind my Motorhome for the last few years that I can! I’m old and Retired now...
**UPDATE-2: Pinpointed one of the fault indicator lights as the "Electronic ThrottleControl". Also scanned the fault codes and have a historical P24DA. Not sure if these are related. I know this is a lot, but I've pulled useful information from threads like this in the past and hopefully this...
So even though I’ve posted many times this is not a grocery getter, I went from putting a 100,000 on my truck in two years to driving it just 4 miles a day because we bought a retail store.
About a week and half ago, I got the 80% warning and went to drive my truck on the highway to clear out...
