Is this a Apps problem?

might get this from this guy for $200 if thats what the problem is

Replacement TPS/ APPS

dodge wants $800


I was driving 100km/hr rail pressure 15k
power dropped and pedal didn't do anything if i tried to accelerate. had to let coast for a bit then could go again sort of . did a few times on the way to work.

diesel guy told me to reset tps. disk batt for 1/2 hr then press pedal 3 times.
hasn't done it again so far.

if it happens again then its time to change the apps if thats what it is..

I don't beleive this B.S. No one has ever proven to me this method works. "Calibration" is a different beast and should be done when you put a new on in. Not sure if the 3rd gen's call like the 2nd gen's thought. Never worked on a 2003 and up.


Find the same truck and "borrow" a TPS for an hour and make sure that is the problem before you dump $200 into it. It could be a chaffed wire or a dozen other things. $.02

Mine had a bad surge a couple weeks ago, so I did this and it fixed it.

Except, I just just did one throttle cycle.
