2016 V6 3.6l. Issues with throttle body

Recommended Posts

Just had to change the battery in my journey. Yet after that happened, the throttle body apparently decided to kicked the bucket. This is a higher mileage journey, I think pushing 134k. 

So I got the throttle body changed, now it is revving up like it's a racecar when it it put into reverse or drive. The only way to stop that is by just lightly pressing the brake. It is only throwing one code now I believe after the throttle body was changed out. I'll have to get home and look at my obd scanner to see the code. 

 

Does anybody have any idea on what this issue might be?  I'll update the post with the current code or codes knowing my luck.

Strange for such a year and even with that kind of miles on it.  Sounds t me from your description that there must be a vacuum leak from one of the hoses near the TB or the seal ing "O" ring itself.

I've got 3 3.6 older and all with pushing 200K miles and not had that problem with RPM's or a faulty TB.

Power brake vacuum source is an electrical powered pump, don't see the posted connection you speak of to control the RPM's.

Please post back what you find, and good luck!
