This video is the reason I’m always on UA-cam to try find ways to keep my vehicles out the shop I jus went and looked at the windshields sure enough no sealant. Thanks bro
I’m having all of these issues now. I went to a shop and paid over $500 to get it fixed and it rained 2 days later and it all started again. I got a new cowl and put a bead of fish tank silicone along the windshield and covered the tps and coil packs with thick aluminum foil that I folded over a few times to keep from coming off due to driving. It’s working ok so far.
The tps is sensitive to water. Probably not faulty out of the box. The rain water just messing everything up. I have 230,000 miles on my Durango. Runs good still.
I took apart my throttle body yesterday, I can see why they're sensitive to water ... it looks like a friggen cell phone inside, just jammed with electronics and a motor and lots of exposed electronic contact points. Gone are the days of a simple cable throttle.
Thank you for your video, sir. My Durango is slow at acceleration and then it takes off like a bat out of hell when you give it gas. It also revs to high RPM’s when throttled in park. Does that sound like the same sensor issue? I subbed in hopes for a quick response as I’m literally trying to fix it today.
I hope you figured out what was wrong with your Durango, because mine is doing the exact same thing as yours and I don't know what the f*** is wrong. I hope you see my message and reply ASAP thank you.
A flex seal to my windshield down. The water that is dripping onto the manifold isn't exactly coming from under the windshield the majority of the water comes from the top of the windshield actually goes through the windshield wiper hold it builds up right there and it's just a puddle and it just drips down it's going through the windshield wiper hold is also going under but the main piece where it's going through and dripping onto the TPS in the top part of the manifold like a f****** canal is coming through
Once you get a TPS code, you may want to check air filter, first a plastic bag, or we had a Xmas mouse, he had made a blanket out of hood fibers, and a Xmas stocking. He also had accumulated 5lbs of dog food. Then twigs and stones for a walk to protect his stash true story
I did that too. First I used a rubber hose with a slit cut on one side to fill the gap then I used exterior black silicone. Works for a time but eventually still pulls away (the cowl continues to bow and flex)
my 2013 dodge journey sensor light and check engine light comes on and runs rough when i turn off engine sensor lights goes off then after driving it for awhile check engine lights goes off
@@jonathonsalazar7011 I have those 2 codes and 0441. I'm going to start with the tps. I'm so not a mechanic, but after watching all these videos (UA-cam university) I think I can do it. Curious if u did this and ur codes cleared.. I have a Dodge Ram, seems to be the same concept as this.

Exactly! I didn’t realize it was getting that much water.

@@SEAPanel yeah and it’s just getting worse.
Judge said use channel in court bas
Had the exact same issue on my 2007 Chrysler aspen, just replaced that sensor about an hour ago
Same here. Same vehicle, replaced it 5 times now, third time paying for it, gonna try the grease
Did it mess up again after that
Honestly, no…but I’m thinking I would have been better off buying an OEM part. The TPS sensors from the parts stores gave me fits.
I wonder if it could be the same situation with 2007 ram 1500 5.7 hemi? I bought it in March and it has acted up twice in hard rains.
Very possible
@@TonyCollumtheHOWTOHERO did this cure your issues with your Durango?
07 Durango I've resorted to garbage bags on the days that rain.
Oh that’s rough. They make a replacement cowl, but it’s approx $150 +/-. I know it’s an aggravation for sure

Yes this could be a bad tps sensor.
It was the problem. Runs like a champ now

Your situation is possible too. I did the water tests using a garden hose. Either way, it’s a bad situation

Wow, that is crazy. I’ve had the air filter box off so many times and never see any kind of impediment like this, but I’ll keep my eyes open for sure
That's a lovely story, and you tell it so well...with such enthusiasm! (Forrest Gump) 😉
Would u like to see a picture of lt. Dan
So with the window leak why not just lift up lip and run a bead of silicone or roof repair tar from a caulk tube?
I did that too. First I used a rubber hose with a slit cut on one side to fill the gap then I used exterior black silicone. Works for a time but eventually still pulls away (the cowl continues to bow and flex)
What year is this ?
2004
Does that cause your car to stall out
4 years ago
You can get a type of silicone for fish tanks that is better than regular silicone you get in a tube from the hardware store.
You mean for sealing the cowl, right. Great advice.
my 2013 dodge journey sensor light and check engine light comes on and runs rough when i turn off engine sensor lights goes off then after driving it for awhile check engine lights goes off
I been having the same problem. Every time it rains
It was definitely a nuisance for me
Can that sensor prevent car starting?
It is possible. On my Durango out didn’t, but it is possible.
I know on my 07 durango it would take almost 5 mins to start. Don't know about fully not starting but it took a bit
Do all dodge have there own code reader in car
I’m not sure.
Yes if they have a digital dash in that year range.I have a 05 jeep liberty and there's a built in code reader
Did you by chance have code P0068?
No, I can’t say that I remember having that code.
I have both codes p0123 and p0068. Was it something other than the TPS?

Puts my aspen in limp mode
🎉
I have a code P0122
Throttle/Pedal Position what should I fix first the throttle body or the pedal position sensor
What did you end up doing first
@@bryanthidle8372 it was a bad throttle body. I bought one from the junk yard for $35 and still working

7 is better... 😉
