Throttle position sensor


Recommended Posts

Ive got a 2016 dodge journey with the 2.4l.  Have been having issues with the red lightning bolt and found that TPS probably needed changed.  So did that and now can't get it out of limp mode.  Tried disconnecting the battery and that didn't help.  Tried pumping pedal 3 times which fixed it before, but isnt working now.  Need some advice

You may have fixed this by now. I would put the old sensor back in first since car functioned without limp biscuit mode.

 

What codes showed up that made you change tps sensor? It’s possible they sold  you wrong part.

It was the whole throttle assembly you changed out correct?  May not be a plug and play part, sometimes they can require a learn procedure from a dodge compatible hand held scanner. 
 

Drive by wire cars also have an output sensor on the gas pedal that works together with throttle actuator.
