Default ETC. Throttle body problems

Good morning wandering if some one can please help me trouble shooting my etc light and throttle body problem before I go ahead and purchase a new throttle body.. I have a 2007 dodge ram 1500 with a 5.7 engine 140000 km on her, I was having problems with my throttle body loss of power ext took the ol girl to a dealer ship to get a diagnostic to figure wtf thought for sure it was the throttle body but they insisted it was not and was a mapping sensor so this morning I replaced the mapping sensor and took her for a rip every thing was all ticky boo thought it was fixed but noticed the 2nd time I left my house it comes on only when I throw it in reverse, as well I have a faulty fuel level sensor says the dealership have not replaced that would that happen to have any effect on my etc????? Any feed back would be great thanks

No experience with this. Have you tried the search function for this forum? I recall it being discussed on here several times. Might find your answer.

Snake,

Have you reviewed the diagnosis with your servicing dealer. They will be able to advise of the cause and corrections. I would recommend you contact your Dodge dealer's Service Manager for further review and if you would like assistance please PM me your VIN#.

Had the same problem, dealer replaced pedal assembly, throttle body, checked all wiring. Ended up getting feedback from ignition, replaced plugs and wires no more issues
