Great idea. The cold soak is overnight. I am thinking ECT because the SGII says ECT is hovering at 190 in 90 degree heat. I will check it later, I have not driven it today.

Put two new batteries in while in the NAPA parking lot then filled up with 23 gallons of deisel. If it don't rain tomorrow I'll be changing out the positive battery cable and putting in a new alternator.

so over the weekend, i drove 400 miles through the rain and my throttle pedal did not die once. Yesterday, i get 2 miles into my commute to work in the rain and my throttle pedal died and it took like 30 restarts to get it going again..for it to die a mile later.

I got the idea today in the driveway, to spray the drivers fender well with water and see what happened. I was able to get it to die twice, spraying in the exact same area

that then prompted me to remove the fender liner and inspect, which i actually did find a wire that was corroded and entirely broken...but that did not seem to have an impact on anything as it still operated fine. either way, i fixed that and i took apart every connector i saw and cleaned/filled with dielectric grease. i then sprayed it with water with the fender liner out, and couldnt get it to die (this was before i fixed that wire)



i did some testing based off these charts i found on Alldata...and im not really sure if my testing is right or not...



although AG13 refers to the P2139 and P2140 codes i have, i went through the other tests as well... AG10 i tested each APP circuit between ground..and 1 and 2 both had 0 volts, and APP 3 had 7.3 volts. which then it says to find the short to voltage and fix..

AG12 i got like .3 and .7 ohms...which says to replace PCM

im not really sure where to go from here, or if even any of my testing was accurate. i just find it so strange i was able to drive 400 miles in rain the entire time without issue, then i drive 2 miles and have an issue. and then i can spray it with water and it dies...

Looks like you may have your ghost.
From there I would continue driving as normal and see if it still happens.
Since reading all your troubles with the pedal I no longer move mine at all just incase.

Hopefully its fixed though. I know you must be pretty frustrated with it.

And I don't even have adjustable pedals

Nothing changed when I fixed that wire so I'm guessing it's still broken. I guess we will see tomorrow

Oh didn't know that.
Maybe the grease did the trick.
It works wonders on my ATVs.

Can you still make it die with the hose after the grease?
