Dodge Charger, Electronic throttle body light flashing on the Dash, code P2173. Low Power problems..

[@deathsfavorite]

Hi, I have a Dodge Charger 2008 SXT My car had the same Red Lightning Bolt whenever I would be at a red light. The bolt would appear and my car would go idle, so then I would have to turn it off and back on again to get it to work again. I read all the possible problems such as the Throttle Body, O2 sensors, PCM/ECU, blah blah blah. I ended up getting a new Throttle Body and the problem was still happening. So, I took my Charger to a mechanic who said it was my PCM/ECU acting up and that it would cost me about $900 to fix it. Now look here, I'm just a 20 y/o college student I don't have the type of money for that. I kept looking for possible solutions and I ended up coming across a comment on KZbin that said before you start changing the throttle body, PCM/ECU, etc. make sure to check your EGV Valve and see if your gasket is not damaged or missing. I took a look at it and there was the problem the whole time. There was no gasket on my EGR Valve at all. I went to AutoZone and bought a EGR Valve Gasket ( the blue one, cost me about 3-5 dollars) and put it on my valve. After that, my car hasn't gone idle at a red light or stop sign since. Before you start changing all of your parts and taking it to mechanics, check your EGR Valve Gasket. Hope it works! 😄

Banny Thanks for your input!!

[@Mally_MALL]

I put gasket on light still coming on

[@RodneyGarrettMIU]

this is what I'm getting ready to try also, my only worry is that when I wrap my hand around the egr valve tube hole where the gasket will go to seal it, it starts running even rougher

[@parrisprice5892]

Im having the same problem on my 2013 Chrysler 200. From my research the ETC ,has plastic gears ,like 4 of them ,that control the spring loaded flap. Theres alot of tension on the flap, putting alot of pressure for fhe PLASTIC gears to work. Over time ,heat ,the elements ,wear the gears become wore, chipped or even missing teeth. This is why sometimes the car will run, other times if its at the wore teeth part,it runs rough n the light comes on. Best advice is replace the ETC, with a new one. May have to take to shop to get it relearned after installation, with a proper computer tool. Good luck everyone. Btw you may drive the vehicle awhile, before it gets bad fix it BEFORE it breaks completely, in the middle of nowhere

When I came back I got that flashing red lightning bolt and my car wouldn't start, and my display started flickering and dying as well as my headlights. I had to Uber back home just a couple miles and leave my car there because it was getting late and super cold, like freezing. Could it just be the battery that got too low with the auxillary on?

JJ Snchz does it crank? if you have a scan tool, scan it and see what kind of trouble codes you have in memory!!

My 2008 charger 3.5l has the ETC light flashing. And I have no throttle response. What could this be?

Colin Drury check the throttle, or the wiring!!

What is it when the throttle body change it crank and run sitting still and then it goes bk to unable to stay run and shuts off

Hemid Bdran Your Throttle body assembly might be going out, you should have it diagnosed!!

[@EricK-es1kx]

My 2006 Dodge Charger does this but when restarting car the car turns off and will run better until it pops up again. Every time I restart car it resets it. What could this be

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

Eric K make sure you don't have a vacuum leak on the intake or you have a defective throttle body but check the wiring first before you condemn the throttle body...

Having the same issue right now. But, I have other codes along with my high idle. Changed quite a few parts which helped the issue some but didn’t solve it. Any ideas?

Jaloud A.R it sounds like you have a vacuum leak, the high idle speed is the giveaway, check for vacuum leaks, especially around the EGR Tube seal!
