Thank you for sharing !!! I believe this is the exact reason for my engine light being on. Will replace and let you know.
Great video. You helped me out. I was broke down behind an ihop. This video was on point. Got me right
What was wrong with your truck?
Much easier if you remove the throttle body, then you have easy access to the clips.
DaveyF6B I agree that would be easier, then you wouldn't have to sit on the radiator support the whole time, but i was lazy and didn't wanna remove it haha!
when your sensor went bad was it related to the stabilitrack and the trackion control and causing your engine to power down?
Txtwostomp I having the same problem right now did you ever Find out what the problem is
That’s probably a misfire and you need to change your spark plugs. Mine did that and my 7th spark plug was all burnt up. Cheap fix. Go scan it at a local shop and see what comes up.
When I pulled the plug on my MAF the other day, i got a stabilitrack and traction control need servicing and is off messages.
Have
Mine is doing the same thing. Seems to only mess up when it rains or moisture in the air.
Would you say I need to change the sensor?
Will start up fine after a couple trys.
Can the TPS keeps the transmission from shifting into overdrive?
Yay Union Pacific work truck in background!
Tyvm👍
What problems did you have before changing out this part
Christopher Foulk only a check engine light, no drive ability issues
@@mufnsgarage8780 have you heard of the TPS causing the transmission not to shift into overdrive?
@@jamesstacey529 that I have not
@@mufnsgarage8780 Well thanks for the quick reply anyway 👍
Did your check engine light turn off right after you did this or ??
So would the truck not start without it
The truck would run but kept a constant check engine light
Does this bad tps cause hard shifting into reverse?
Yes
I turned the gear on the sensor with a flat head screwdriver to line it up with the peice on the throttle body.Now my engine revs high/ runs hard.What do I do?
Carlos Whitfield -i did the same thing lol, runs hard it pushes more gas... did u find a fix?
Yes I just purchased a new sensor.
Installed it.Switched the key to the start position took the post off the battery to reset the computer.After that it ran crazy for about a week.
Then back to normal.
Appreciate the vid.
Good info
Dean Robert, I did the same thing, now my engine idles at 3000 RPMS. Can I take the sensor back off and readjust it back to fix the problem or do I just need to buy another sensor now? It looks like even if I had pressed open the throttle to line it up, it would have still moved to the same position when I let go of the throttle plate.
Relearn procedure: ua-cam.com/video/NAnEoMa80VY/v-deo.html
Apparently it takes a while for the truck's computer to relearn the position of the throttle. After trying the 3 minute idle, 1 minute off, 3 minute idle procedure several times and driving it around over 44 mph several times with no success, I let it sit over night and the problem fixed itself. Wish all my mechanical problems resolved themselves that way.
Whether you adjust the sensor to fit on the throttle body or rotate the throttle body to fit on the sensor either way your computer has learned and registered the inputs from your previous settings so it takes a little while for your computer to re learn the new settings for the throttle body or sensor it is perfectly normal
I have 2007 GMC Sierra 2500HD classic (same truck your working on in video) I replaced my TBS and I am still going in to safety mode!!!! My truck will run fine for days then it won't then it's fine again.....I am at my breaking point!!!! Any advice on what to try now!!!! I have replaced battery, wired checked all the fuel system filter lines everything!!!!?????
Rachel White is it failing for the tps?
MUFN's Garage I am replacing the accelerator pedal sensor right now.... I pray it works.... It was throwing codes for the pedal so we shall see
Check if there is a sensor at the accelerator pedal. It is the other part of the TPS and there is usually a sensor at the Gas pedal that sends the signal to the TPS at the throttle body. On my Chevy truck it that unit came as an entire assembly with a new pedal and all.
Hope that helps
I changed out the Gas Pedal, The TPS, and it still saying Engine Power Reduced. I checked all the wires In the Pedal and the One hook up to the TB and they was all good. But Sometimes It will even Kill the Truck. What could be the problem?
Jacobe Huff Check your ground wire
Definitely ground wire under drive door
I have the same problem as of right now
Hello I have a 2012 gmc sierra sle 1500 it starts fine and idles for about 10 minutes and then it will die and and I get the stable track and reduced power screen it thin will start a few minutes latter and idle and thin dies again same screens does anyone have any ideas on what could cause this thank you very much(:
RICKY GARCIA I also have this problem did you get that fixed ?
Sometimes the wiring harness that runs between the firewall and motor gets frayed. See if anything is grounded there or around the alternator. Also check the ground for a clean connection at the frame that's below the driver's seat area.
I did the same thing, but my truck seems like it pushes to much gas when i put it on drive? Any suggestions
calimexautoinsurance possibly the pedal assembly??
Im gonna run it for a day or two to see how it runs, if not I’ll re do it again
My 2009 gmc sierra 5.3 stays on 3000rpms any help
Hello did you find a fix
Do you disconnect ur battery or so ur light can turn off or it turns of by it self?
Which light are you referring to?
The check engine
How do you reset the engine light after you replace it
William Younce you can go to an AutoZone or other parts store, and they can reset your code for free. Or I bought a Bluetooth OBDII reader off amazon for $20 so I can do it myself.
William Younce the engine light will actually turn off by itself as long as there are not any other codes setting it off. Wait to see if it turns itself off, that way you know if your new part works. If the light doesn’t turn itself off, you could have an issue other than the TPS
Is the battery connected during this procedure? And is there a relearn process for the new part?
Yes I left the battery connected and I did not need a relearn process for the part, i've been driving it for months with no problems.
I see that GM has a Service Campaign Bulletin #11273B for replacing this part on most trucks 2008 - 2011 within a period of 10 years from purchase or 120,000 miles. I will be visiting my nearby GM dealer tomorrow to see if I can get this service prior to my holiday trip next week. Slim chance, but I will try.
Mark Burginger good luck they should be able to help you out!
mine dosen't have clips
Will it automatically enable full engin power after replacing it? Also will it say "engine power restored" or does it just go back to regular.
