Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Idel but no go

[MCharlebois]

truck starts instantly every time --after i already drove to work -about 3 hours latyer i jump in to get a coffee- starts and idles put it in R ----nothin wtf-put the pedel to the floor and nothin---back in drive engine revs up R again and all is fine-hesitated yesterday morn for bout a second also--TPS??have a 0216 but might be old as a canot clear codes---



i remember reading a thread about the ecm relearning the pedal position?????

TPS reprogram is disconnect both batteries, turn the ignition to on and let the truck sit for at least 1/2 hour. Turn the ignition off, re-connect the batteries, ignition back on, and SLOWLY and smoothly depress the throttle to the floor three times, turn the ignition off and it should be set.



There is also an issue with the automatics and some other sensor but I can not remember what it is.



It almost sounds like you are in limp mode.



Do the key from off-on three times and leave on and write down all the codes that come up in your odometer window. 0216 is Injector Pump timing malfunction - bad.

codes

the only other code i have is 0234 -overboost-----these are old



will try the throttle thing



also i just came back from the store -truck seems to be slightly revin up 200to300 rpm over an over- :{

Just as a note, I haven't had good luck with the ODO code reading trick, most of the time the codes aren't stored either because they've corrected themselves or they are ones dodge doesn't want you to see. Both times I've had trouble with my truck I had to get a code reader to see what was happening. I went to Auto-Zone for this, the only problem with them is their code definitions are generic and often they can't tell you what you really have for a code, but as long as you have the number you can cross reference it. To me your problem sounds like the APPS, slap a code reader on there and see what you've got
