Default 2007 hemi starts then stops ! electronic throttle control light at dash!

i notice for few weeks ago that the light at dash " electronic throttle control" come and went away,then again,and it went away again, and the truck starting to run worse and worse,it starts i drive little then it stops,or has no power,or it starts ,then dies,or starts and hit reverse and dies right there,

is a 2007 dodge ram 1500 hemi 5.7 4x4

from what i was reading it maybe the " accelerated pedal with sensor " ?
dealer is about 240$, and i wanted to ask here first what you guys think before i buy that
"accelerated pedal with sensor " ...

I had this issue once. it turned out that the connector was coming loose and making partial contact.
