Cool Electronic Throttle Warning Light
Well, here we go. Ive only had the truck 3000 miles and the "electronic throttle warning" light came on today (the wrench). i could tell right away that the "safe mode" had kicked in from the computer cause acceleration and RPMs were down. then after i turned the truck off and back on the "wrench" and the "check engine" lights were on. this is not what i want. anybody have any understandings about whats going on or know of any TSBs regarding this problem?

I will be taking it to the dealership tomorrow to have a diagnostic run on it.

Sorry to hear about your troubles. Too many things to possibly trouble-shoot over the 'net. Please keep us updated on what the dealership finds.

took to dealership this morning. there was a TSB out on it, however they didnt give me the TSB #. all i know is they replaced one of the TSPs, reprogramed the computer module, ran diagnotics again, and then test drove. seems to be working now, guess i will find out with more driving.

captchas has had the pedal sensor replaced, he had other problems, not the "wrench" though.

What part was replaced exactly? The pedal sensor?
