APPS or TPS Sensor Reset

here is a try to reset a apps or tps sensor on a dodge cummins. it gives you a P2121 or P2123 code or dead petal. well ended up being a bad part :(

[@pilotdtayles]

Have the P2121 code, bought a APPS to replace, and just before I did the replacement I found your KZbin video. So when I did the reset on my 2004.5 5.9L Cummins I didn't disconnect the batteries. It worked! the engine light is off and it's working.

[@samshotgun6530]

My truck is a second gen.. but I was told if you're apps is going out, clean all the. Components and spray liberally with WD 40.. long story short I have had an apps sensor going out, and spraying it a with WD got my truck working for 6 more months. Then it started doing it again and i sprayed it all again and got another 6 months! Not sure why it works, but it does!

That’s why I still like the cable driven throttles the TPS is cheap to replace it’s just a little wheel sensor that turns with the throttle and sends electrical signals back to the computer. Electric throttles do the same thing except when they act up you gotta replace the whole thing instead of a cheap sensor

[@crisco249]

Timbo APPS $165 shipped to your door, best fix ever for 98-04 Cummins

[@theCALBOYGIXXER]

I'm wondering if you replaced the sensor and did it fix it. I'm having problems with my 03 2500 as well. Thanks

[@rbvb7539]

I start to have a similar problem but my accelerator disconnect when it reach the 80 milles ..do you think can be the same sensor? Thanks

[@jordanrowan2537]

I had 2003 5.9L when it did that it’s was the TPS failing. Sometimes I’d be doing 70MPH down the high way and the throttle would cut out I’d press the clutch in cut the key off give around 5 seconds for the engine to die then dump the clutch and cut the key on and it would be working again

[@marenboot4535]

What's the outside Temps because it could be automatic high idle

[@noediaz2956]

mi camioneta acelera muy despacio y pongo 2 da y corre bien que creen que tiene.

[@LiilTyweezy]

so was it causing you to run rough too?

[@emmalyster6775]

This happened to my 2015 3500 dodge and the reset worked. I unplugged the batteries for about two hours, did the reset then left it over night. I jumped it in the morning and now the accelerator pedal is working again

[@TheCornstalker]

Emma Lyster i have a 3500/2012 its doing same thing would you’re truck still start when it was not working for u

[@auaiao9]

Nice boots.

[@josephmelville1]

it could be the pedal sensor

[@angelf9800]

I have a code P0122 Throttle/Pedal Position what should I fix first the throttle body or the pedal position sensor

[@carlospopoca1738]

My 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 l has the exact same problem no control on the pedal acceleration so yeah that’s the reason and I’m going through it too

[@joshson7946]

did u fix it

[@XXX-tc8ef]

2005 Ford F750 dump truck w/Cummins 5.9l, Allison automatic. Red “Stop Engine” light illuminates and engine goes into limp mode. Turn truck off for 2 minutes, then starts and runs good until it goes into limp mode again. Researched causes: coolant or oil levels low”, but mine are good. Cummins can’t find the problem. No codes. Any ideas?

[@gregguttridge9835]

Dito,I put a standard motor product on it and similar results, along of shade tree advice later, and then to DODGE go get reset

[@theoriginalmikeg.]

Well at least it's starting! I did the reset yesterday on 03 RAM 2500 gas and it worked! Went to start this morning and NOTHING! Just turns over, runs battery down

[@hakahaka4798]

How you fixed your problem??

[@andresniederhofer8602]

Having the same exact problem on mine. What ended up fixing yours?

[@kenuber4766]

A new TPS . $165.00.

[@patriot4549]

I have a problem with my 04 5.9 Cummings where I can be driving down the road and all of a sudden lose complete throttle response the truck doesn't die but my truck will not rev up but if I turn it on and off enough times and slam down on the throttle a lot most of the time I can get it to bring the throttle back but it seems to only happen when I first start up the truck for the day after I start it up and I get the throttle pedal working again it'll run the rest of the day with no problem any advice please I beg of anyone

[@jamesrodriguez9666]

I just replaced my throttle body on an 07 chevy aveo5 and it still wont accelerate rpms. Stays on 2000 with the pedal all the way down to the floor

[@nickhutson1802]

I got the same problem and i got a p pump 12 valve with a blown head im about to p pump mine and be done with it

[@johnwarr6425]

I saw your second video where you did have to replace the APPS. Did everything work out OK and is it still running good? My 2003 Dodge 2500 is starting to get the "dead petal" periodically after it has set overnight and I'm getting the same codes.Once it wanms up after running 10 to 15 minutes, it seems to run OK. Either my ApPS is going out, or there is a short in one of the sensor wires.

[@brentcollins1036]

my truck is doing the same thing, in the morning it has dead pedal then after a few minutes it runs fine all day, did you get it fixed? was it the sensor?

[@jessicalepore2941]

It worked, thanks!

[@bradmetcalf5333]

I get this same issue on my 04 Gen III.. Not very consistent. Can go days without out it messing up. My programmer shows APP % on the display,. Works fine then boom 0% and the pedal goes deal. It drops it out of overdrive and will allow you to find a spot the pedal works in but if you hold it there it gradually increases speed until youre forced to let off the pedal and coast. Then, sometimes, it goes back to working all on its own. I dont mind spending the 200 bucks on the sensor of that is the problem(250k miles) but I would hate it to be a connection problem or something that gives a false flag on the sensor. How what ended up fixing yours?

[@1myourpap161]

brad metcalf same here it worked great when i bought it the then apps sensor did the same shit i bought a new worked good for a mouth did the same shit and the it just fixed its self and it would happen once per month went 6 months with out it doing it until my battery died and here we are again it relly fucking sucks

[@carminbailey8427]

I have an 09 Dodge ram 1500 and it's doing the same problem I thought it was the throttle body I clean that out cleaned out the air filter and manifold plug everything back in no pedal tried every reset I could find on the Internet to no Avail I think I'm enough to get a new pedal yeah it fucken sucks just another way for them to make money Off of us

[@The1TheyCall2-Tone]

I’m watching this bc I’ve run out of options and ideas on my 2006 f150. Same shit. It would go a year without issue then boom I’d get no pedal and my edge programmer would say app or throttle position sensor. I’ve since replaced it 5 times with the last one being from ford themselves. Same shit.

[@CisnerosHD]

I had the same problem you did, I had no response coming from my sensor. "Dead Pedal" affect is what they call it, get yourself a new sensor. I paid 400 bucks for mine off of thoroughbred diesel.com and it was the worst mistake I could have done. Don't go to their website they sent me a faulty sensor.

[@user-bo7uq3hw1g]

Ok great we all jave the same problem now can we talk about fixing it?

[@GlobalAwareness2525]

Everything just gets less reliable. I thought I got away from all the electronic stuff with my 95 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel, but no, I think it all started in 95 dealing with Torque Converter lock up tearing into the wiring & sensors, ridiculous. And your problem in the old days should really only be a cable, but as technology forever advances seems to be more of a setback. Dodge couldn't give me a new truck... well actually they could but I'd just take it straight to the scrap yard with the FORDs.

[@johnnylaw2983]

Lol fords have like twice the electrical components in those years compared to dodge Your problem was the sisy automatic transmission because if you would of had a manual transmission all the 12 valve needs to run is one 12 volt wire that’s it so ide say that’s pretty simple electrical

[@cocamustang]

is the connector above your foot tight? check the wires right on the top of your pedel. Dont think that APPS is $600, i may be wront though

[@roberternst5112]

cocamustang you can get the pedal sensor to partsgeek.com

[@735bruce]

A friend of mine had the same problem on a 2008 Dodge Avenger we couldn't figure what it was we ended up cleaning out the throttle body it didn't work we put it on a diagnostic machine it read a misfire on 1 cylinder so we changed the spark plugs and that particular coilpack that misfired... It didn't work so we checked the fuel pump it had sand in it so we replaced the fuel pump and that didn't work...So we drained all the gas cleaned out the gas tank changed the fuel injectors blew out the fuel lines and finally it worked like a charm....6 months later the car started doing the exact same thing all over....When trash get in your fuel system the computer on this car will give you incorrect codes....

[@jb0915]

it's probably the ignition control igniter module my Buick did that after 750 later it was the last thing to try and changing gas and cleaning it out and all that temporarily fixed it then it would do it again since I changed the igniter module IDK if your car has one but it's the thing the coil packs sit on I changed that and never again did I have that issue

[@abelcerrillo2162]

could it been ur neighborhood gas station had water in the pumps.

[@historyhunter5215]

Bruce Edwards thanks...

[@MoparHollics]

Bruce Edwards FYI the only way trash goes into your gas tank and specially sand is when someone puts it in there ...🤔

H. Garcia actually some deos fall in and there is alot of floats in the gas station vats... I had someone (try) to pour 5lbs of sugar in my tank...(wifes ex boyfriend)... Most cars from 00 up have a flange that only liquid can pass....😉

[@johnnysimmons3090]

fuel peddle on my 2006 hemi just quit. It would start and idle but fuel peddle had no response. Put a new fuel pedal on it and did the reset and worked great..till i killed it and restarted it then nothing...WTH???

[@dinosaur6106]

Check problem codes if it’s the sensor make sure you’re getting the right resistance from it

[@truthleaker222]

Can the tps cause intermittent black smoke on a 2004.5 cummins? I heard it can fail to tell the computer to ramp up rail pressure? I’m throwing a code on it. Rolling coal when I give it heavy throttle.

[@samshotgun6530]

If the WD works then you know. It's the apps sensor.

[@humbertoesteban603]

i have the same problem but the scanner says low circuit i change the tps nd i still have the same problem do you have any suggestions for me?

[@RaulLopez-wb1hs]

Humberto Esteban have you check all of the wire connections make sure nothing is loose

[@humbertoesteban603]

yes i did but now checking engine light its off nd still have same problem wit TPS

[@RaulLopez-wb1hs]

Change the hole tps its around 345

[@humbertoesteban603]

that's what I did problem still there when im driving over 30mph it sounds like its low on transsmision fluid so i change fluid and filters on transsmision cuz i though the converter wasn't getting all the pressure to shift gears

[@seanclark9472]

I’ve got an 08 ram 6.7 and the pedal was intermittently malfunctioning. I bought one from Napa then one from O Reilly’s both the same and incompatible w/ truck. . It seems the part number 53034004AB has been changed to now end with an E rather than a B . I’ll buy the part from the dealer but it definitely works the other ones were dead pedals to begin with showed no voltage on any scanners

[@33northy]

@@seanclark9472 Hey Sean, I have the same intermittent issue with my 08 2500 Ram. Did you buy the Mopar 53034004AE pedal sensor and did it fix the problem?

[@thesetruths1404]

Maybe you know the answer to this unique issue I have on my 2005 Dodge Ram 5.9 Cummins automatic w/overdrive transmission? 196,000 miles. It's the original transmission and motor. All fluids/oils and filters regularly changed and kept clean/new. Not used to tow often...4-5 times a year at most and 8,000 lb loads at most. I've asked 4 tranny shops and a few forums and Facebook groups but no luck finding same problem or proper fix. I'm wondering if I'm just that special?!?? Lol One mild Fall day last year I had driven 260 miles on interstate at about 75-80 mph. It began slowly reducing speed over 6 miles from 80 to 15mph. Moving fuel pedal would not do anything but make it stumble a little a couple dozen RPMs up or down. Stopping and restarting it immediately did not help nor did changing gears manually. All fluids were fine, not too hot and no burning of anything fluid or conduit wire was observed. All looked good under and above it. I stopped it for 30 minutes as I checked it over. It would drive normally after that, but it would only go 25-30 miles before it would slowly slow down again as described above. I did this over many cycles all the way home 260 miles. I'd turn it off and on again, completely off as it rested for 25 minutes. The batteries seemed to be getting charged (started well each time) and no warning lights were on. Once or twice, when I drove it until it would not even crawl anymore (1-2 mph, I was testing it), it stalled. So it wasn't hard starting or hard-stalling unless I took it all the way down to 1-2 mph speed. It was not idling weird either. Could this be an electrical ground failure or electronic issue? If I had a battery connection loose or anything disrupting the flow could it cause this? It seems like something is getting tired and needing to cool down or something but nothing was overly hot or smoking. What's weird to me is it's not slipping in the usual way of revving up but not moving. It would usually get no lower than idle. Tranny shops haven't heard of this before. No transmission codes either. They want to charge me $3,000+ for new or rebuilt tranny. I want to rule out wiring and electronics (that don't throw codes) first. Any suggestions? Heard of this ever before for an automatic transmission? Thanks!

[@pierreandrews1279]

Did you check the wiring from the speed sensor up near the transmission oil cooler? That was my problem 🤬 They try to sell me a transmission

[@thesetruths1404]

@@pierreandrews1279 I did not. I think they scammed me. I don't think my tranny was bad. I think it was the wiring and/or a ground. It could have even been a clogged fuel filter because I changed that also. But, $3,100 later and 4 trips back for leaking pan and here I am without any issues. Lol

I hope you didn't spend $600.00 on that sensor.
