You know those DC motors working their butts off going back and forth for constant and variable throttle position. Sure would take precise control to run those motors like that. The trouble they go thru just to eliminate a cable... smh.

I have replaced this electronic throttlebody four times since I’ve owned my 2015 eco-boost. Ford should’ve come up with a solution for this. This is outrageous crappy piece of technology..

It happens to my 2011 Escape also. Seems to happen when it's wet. From rain or washing it sometime makes it start happening. Sometimes it runs right for a month without happening.

2010 Ford Escape New throttle body part was $100 Woodhouse Ford Blair Nebraska .Ford extended the warranty on this part to 10 years or 150,000 miles ,I changed it out myself...Extremely important part so that your FORD doesn't stop in the Middle of the Freeway

get a gopro .. strap it to you head .. so frustrating watching you try to handle things one handed . but other than that .. your awesome dude

What’s ‘that part’ called ?

Very detailed bideo great job! Do you think the failure of and ETB would cause jerking under hard acceleration along with horrible fuel mileage and the odor of gas?

That’s a good idea to just change out the plastic cover on your throttle body. However like in my case for instance, I just purchased a Brand New throttle body for my 2005 F-150 with the 5.4 Triton for only $63 dollars. And it comes with the throttle body sensor which is on the passenger side kinda towards the back of the throttle body. I’m going to get the whole thing for $63 dollars. You can’t beat that huh?

I installed a new battery on 2006 Ford 500 and then had P2111 / P2104 codes. I cleaned the throttle body, erased codes, disconnected battery, etc, etc. but kept getting the same codes and locked in "limp mode". I was just about to buy a new throttle body, but first decided to adjust the closed position stop after watching your video. Mine is a spring loaded stop screw/pin - slightly different from the one shown in your video. The head is a plastic hex that protrudes on the outside of the housing. I backed the stop out about 3/4 turn and this corrected the issue. Car is running better than it has in months. I assume this adjustment may be compensating for a weak return spring, but it got me going for now. Great video! Much appreciated.

how can i program a throttle body of a mustang gt 06

Just had an issue with my car going into limp mode. Same codes previously discussed. Replaced with a new one. Opened the old one and found the first five teeth had been worn almost flat on the half gear that connects to the throttle valve which made for inconsistent idle. 20 minutes to replace. Thanks for the videos.

Great video - concise, informative and well presented. This sets the standard for for DIY auto repair videos...

I just had mine fail... the butterfly valve would not close like it should... would stay open... I found a Dorman replacement TB at O'Reilly auto parts for $119(about$130 with tax here) and just swapped the whole thing... truck idles better than before, everything is fine now... Just glad I didn't opt to replace the cap piece like you suggested... I took the old TB apart after swapping it...2 bolt/screws snapped halfway out, one twisted, and one came out fine... would have been a nightmare getting those screws out... depending on how much the cap costs, might be more worthwhile to just replace the whole thing...

Thanks buddy. Happened to me today on the highway. Complete loss of power at 100 kmph, coupled with a heavy gearbox shift, probably to neutral. Was on cruise control. The orange wrench came on but no MIL. Stopped at the shoulder on emergency, no throttle response. Put gear in P then back to drive, nothing.

Thanks for your vids. Helped me out a lot with my 07 Explorer 4.6 3v Orange Ironman Edition 225k. Thought I was having TPS issues with random stalls at stops or at highway speed as soon as you let off the pedal. I pushed the throttle plate all the way to closed and it stuck close. Removed and cleaned throttle body and no issues at all with the originalTPS. Sticking Throttle Plate essentially blocks all air intake then you stall have to pull over and restart engine which resets throttle plate. Hard to chase down randomness. No codes. Gummed Up Throttle plate. Try pushing yours closed and see if it sticks if u have random things happening. Good luck

Thanks for the explanation! My wife's 2010 Fusion had the ETB die this morning. Thankfully she was right near a dealership that was able to replace it under the extended warranty at no cost to us, otherwise I'd be looking into replacing the cover with the sensor.

Hey brother I wanted to thank you for the videos you save a shipmate of mine about $300.plus from going to the dealership. Being in the Navy the young guys don`t make a lot of $$. Lets just say youtube is AWESOME how to videos... Keep them coming.

My 2010 Ford escape hybrid was pulling code p2112 and I got it checked out. The mechanic said it was the electronics in the throttle body just like you said! Your videos are so useful thank you!

I just received a recall notice for my 2010 Ford Fusion, so I was curious about the issue. Your explanation was really informative. Thank you.

Done changed the plugs and checked all coils and still have a rough idle and that little surge so I guess I'll be going with the BBK 80mm throttle body thanks
