I have a 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 w/ Hemi. But my engine light along with a blinking ETC has appeared on my dash. The truck has staled on me several times especially when im taking left turns. It becomes very sluggish and itidels alot. Im also getting a P2175 and P2106 code. Can anyone please help or decipher these codes? If so please help me out.

 

P2175 Throttle Actuator, low air flow detected
P2106 Throttle Actuator, Forced limited power

Sounds like the engine is starving for air.

 

Thanks for responding!! What do you recommend I do??

 

could it be as simple as a dirty air cleaner?

 

You can try resetting the pcm and see if it returns.

If it does, then check the connector at the throttle body.

If that don't work, its dealer time.

 

This is probably a dumb question, but where exactly is the throttle body located at? And how do i reset the pcm??

 

The throttle body is in the center/rear of the top of the engine. The airbox and hose feeds into it.

But, your problem could also be the electronic thottle assembly below and just behind the battery.

To reset the pcm, look at the underneath of your fuse box lid and find the number of the fuse for the pcm/skim.

Pull that fuse, buckle the driver seat belt and turn the key to start (it won't start) and wait for 2 chimes. That will reset the pcm and trans.

 

I reset the pcm and at first the truck kept turning off on me. Once i got on the road it was fine for a day or two then back to the norm. Idles, stalls and at times it accellerates on own.

 

Dealer time.

 

Someone told me that it could be my O2 sensor. If so could that be something i can do myself if so where is it located? What do you think?
