yup, sounds about right, the tps is on the t-body (not sure which side its on, but its connected to the shaft that the butterfly valve rides on) and replacement is unplug, unbolt, bolt in the new one and plug it in.

just remember to disconnect the battery before you start, and hold the key to start for about 30-60 seconds before reconnecting the battery.

 

Try and help people out and see what happens to a perfectly good thread.....LOL


I'm ignoring you from my view so I just put you on ice. Don't come to me for help bro!

 

did this happen when it was not in cruise mode?
thanks - hammer

 

i am still having problems with my 2000 durango r/t after i had a new fuel pump put in. it is clogging up to where every other day i need to run it up and down the highway real fast to clean it out ????? it is like it is to rich and when i change the pump the pressure regulator was also done since it all comes in the same unit. i also put a tune up on it. it will pop like it is backfiring, could that be the timing off or do these newer trucks do that. can you put a timing light on it or do they even use one any more. thanks

After you replace all them parts did you reset the PCM?

 

Most likely a pre-cat O2 sensor. Is it backfiring from the Throttle Body or the Exhaust?

 

i am not sure how to reset the PCM and as far as backfireing i am not sure it is when i am going down the road and trying to get it to go. it get so frustrating.

 

To reset the pcm disconnect the battery and turn the key to run for 30sec. Then reconnect the battery, start it and let it idle for 15sec. Re start and drive, it will take approximately 15 cold starts and 40 miles (some one will correct me if I'm wrong on the number) to fully reprogram itself.

 

40-500 miles to fully relearn, but otherwise you nailed it.

 

I stand by saying the pre-cat O2 sensor is out.
