I replaced the Throttle Body & Accelerator Pedal Assemblies last winter after having a random code pop up a few times over the course of several weeks. - It would just pop up once every two weeks give or take, usually when I wasn't in a position to properly diagnose the problem.

Anyway, the error still occasionally occurred after swapping in the parts, so odds are that one or both of these guys are just fine. - They are the original parts, so I'm only asking for offers....if you need one for parts, testing, etc, make me an offer for the set. As I stated, replacing them didn't totally fix my issue and would still get a throttle performance code (tb wasn't opening fast enough if you goosed it).

If you'd like them to play with (I'm 99.9% sure the accelerator is perfectly fine, just swapped the set out), make me an offer. Heck, if you buy the PCM or some of the other parts, I might be able to toss them in the same box for free).

Thanks,

An FYI, if your rig is an '04 you probably just need to flash your PCM... P1680 & or P0606

Wasn't that simple, mine was an '02, the PCM flash didn't apply and actually had the newest code flashed back in '08 or '09 by Western's Garage. I also had some other issues going on with an intermittent misfire, not bad enough to set a code, but annoying as hell at idle. There was a bit of a shake, audible exhaust hiccup and mixed up fuel trim. We swapped PCMs back to the stock, plugs, coils, CPAS, etc, and just nothing seemed to improve it. - Just several little gremlins that we couldn't get a handle on.
