Throttle position sensor

Has anyone had much trouble with the throttle position sensor that is on the fuel pedal. I have had to replace mine at least 4 times. just wondering if there is something causing them to go bad. truck is a daily driver that is not around dirt roads.

Are you buying OME? I haven't heard much trouble of having to do it more then once.

There's a part number on here somewhere, maybe someone will jump in that has it. Certain years you can change just that part. Sorry I don't have the number. I would say with your trouble I'd go OME.
