I picked the truck up Friday September 11th in Sioux Falls, SD and drove it 4 hours home and liked the drive. Sunday morning I got up to drive it to the airport as I travel for work and I got the Service Electronic Throttle Control message. Really never saw this when I was reviewing the truck till I looked on this site. The truck has EGR and DEF Delete already so was shocked this would come up, well I was until I got on here and looked around. Any ideas on what I might try when I get back home to her? Should I have purchased one with the HEMI instead? Thanks for the help and replies!

Welcome!

Did your check engine light come on?

Did you happen to have your foot on the brake along with the gas pedal? That can cause this error also.

If it’s been deleted it could be something simple like the map sensor possibly needing cleaned Or a loose connection but without a code it’s kind of a guessing game.
 
Thanks for the reply. I read about having foot on brake and gas pedal which I hadn’t done. I was wondering about the MAP sensor after reading some more. Thanks again
 
No problem keep us posted with what you find and if you have any more questions!
 
I just bought a 2015 as well. So far I like it. Only code I had was oil temp sensor. Replaced it...kinda simple job hope to get many miles out of her.......
 
Thanks everyone! I got back to the airport today and took the truck by a Ram dealer. Said he could not read any codes since it has all of the stuff deleted off of it. EGR, DPF and DEL, is this common. The guy that sold it said he was going to send me the tuner, says that when I take it in to have codes read to tell them not to flash it because it has been tuned. Still no luck with the Service Electronic Throttle Control. Wondering that since all the stuff has been deleted, could it be the accelerator pedal or probably not? Thanks again!
 
should not of happened with a deleted truck find out who tune is being used
