Dead Accelerator Pedal
Until last night my 2004 PSD with 48k miles has run perfectly. No performance mods. Truck was fully warmed up. Reversed out of my driveway, put the truck in Drive and it continued to idle as I stepped on the Go pedal. I shifted thru all the gears, nothing but idle. I shut the engine off, restarted and all was well. Any ideas? Should I take it in or does this sound like a fluke? I haven't checked for any codes yet, I'll do that today and report back.

check the pedal on the floor for any loose wires also check fuses...not 100% on the elec system but the pedal is just a potentiometer (sp?) and input and output can obviously be read with a voltmeter to verify if it is in fact dead.
