Also curious what you mean by unexpectedly high maintenance costs? 100$ oil change at 9k interval, and a 40$ fuel filter ~annual? Differentials, and well that's all. Other than getting screwed with diesel prices the actual maintenance costs are at or below norm
...with 144k miles. We were towing our trailer when suddenly we lurched during acceleration and got dash message about the Electric ThrottleControl, the check engine light came on and we were in limp mode. Made it to a dealership 10 minutes up the highway, going about 45mph. Our codes were...
As I mentioned earlier, plethora of circumstances, Low Turbo Boost is one of the causes, Incorrect Mass Airflow Sensor reading, Incorrect Mass Atmospheric Pressure reading, VVTC loss of communications, Injector Flow Low/Higher than anticipated, all these plus many others can cause the dreaded...
...deleting the stock electronic throttle for the Banks throttle delete and having the tuner remove it from ECM would make it impossible for any DTC's regarding the Electronic ThrottleControl let alone the dreaded SERVICE ELECTRONIC THROTTLECONTROL. Any input would be much appreciated!
Cheers
Hi! Does anyone know if an individual can replace the ETC without having to go to a dealer? Also, where would be the best place to purchase one? Thank you

I was carrying a 350 lb load over a long distance on very hilly terrain, hot day. Received an Electronic Sensor ThrottleControl warning light (solid RED), power was reduced quite significantly. As this was a long trip I tried calling some RAM dealers (around closing...
...they still don't know what to do about it since the recall is so new. My truck is already sitting because the "service electronic throttlecontrol" light came on and went into limp mode last Wed. I replaced the MAP sensor and cleaned the egr tube. Didn't fix it. So now the code is p0336...
I was driving today on cruise control and got a CEL and a Service Electronic ThrottleControl message. Limped home and checked the codes and cleared them. Drove it for approximately 30 minutes with no issues. Not going to stray too far from home with it for now to see if it codes again. 52k...
Hmmm never seen a CP4 throw " Check Electronic ThrottleControl" on the screen. and oil pressure light" generally it triggers Rail Pressure codes.... and there's NO Aluminum Parts that rotate in the Direct Injection fuel system use on any Ram 3.0VM ( more like metallic debris). only the...
...warranty, thank the Lord. Parts were back ordered and took a week to come in. They had to take the transmission out to put the new throttlecontrol sensor in and the chip on the flywheel Came off too so they fixed that while they had transmission out. Glad I had that warranty. Now it runs...
...from work. Punched it to pass an old lady doing 30 in a 50. 10 seconds later truck starts sputtering and dies. "Check Electronic ThrottleControl" on the screen. Check engine light and oil pressure light both on. Truck is a 2016 with 115k miles. I replaced the MAP sensor (it was...
The exact same thing happened to me on my 2014 fully deleted ecodiesel a couple of months ago. I had my mechanic son-in-law delete any codes he found and everything has been normal since. In my experience, most of the codes are false alarms, and result in losts of owners getting big bills for...
I have a problem guys I have a 2016 Dodge Ram eco diesel I was driving and as I went up a hill the service throttlecontrol light came on and I loss acceleration so it told me to shift it to park and when I did I turned it off and tried to start it up again and it crank but won’t turn over and...
...preformed and deleted the truck soon after as the last recall was performed. In the past 12 months I have gotten the "Electronic ThrottleControl Sensor" P2138 code maybe once or twice. Over the past week 6 to 7 times a day. In fact, this morning I could not get out of the driveway without...
The easiest way to start a manual regen is with an Edge CTS2. You just select it and it will regen on the next ignition cycle (after the truck reaches the prescribed temps)
