By the way, the truck is a 2002 F-350 4x4 PSD Lariat with 130,000 miles and this is the first time the darn engine light came on.And thanks, this site has been great.

Just buy a new pedal and be done with it There is 2 plugs on mine and you just push the release on the clip and pull it off. Just like any other plug or clip. Then spray some contact cleaner on each end and plug them back in. FYI....i had tps issues and lack acceleration and dead pedal...and just did the new pedal and let me tell you, it is NIGHT AND DAY. Truck has alot more throttle response now and no more deal pedal. I have been needing one for a while it seems. Good luck.

I noticed that as well when I replaced my pedal assembly.

Why is everyone jumping to conclusions. One if its been sitting for 24 days and its cold outside, I would atleast let the truck idle for 10 minutes. My 7.3 did this all the time when it was cold, after about 2 minutes of idling I would have a pedal again.
