running with pcm failure?
The truck gave 2 codes
p0601 -- PCM Internal Ctrller Failure
p0123 -- Throttle Pos Sens Voltage Hi
My first question is what will happen if i continue to run the truck having been given these 2 codes?
2nd is, are these codes related to 1 single problem?
3rd is, how do I fix it?

does it run?
does it have any actual problems?
if it runs, its not going to hurt it any more to run it.
P0123 is a shorted out TPS, which should cause it to not idle. you can replace it from any parts store for about $40-50.
if you have an actual problem, you can get a junkyard pcm, or a refurb for 100-200-250 bucks. avoid auto computer exchange (ACE or something like that, they seem to have a bad reputation)
