[@big-c4486]

If it don't fix it, I reccomend replace it.

[@xoxosh4826]

THANKS SO MUCH. I’m gonna try this and see if it fixes my car’s problem with jerking and slow acceleration

[@big-c4486]

If that don't work try replacing it, it is super easy, barely an inconvenience,

[@xoxosh4826]

@@big-c4486 Do you know anything about PCM? I keep getting a code P1670. I think that may be my car’s issue

[@big-c4486]

I know a little bit about it but you can get a code reader that can tell you what the issue is, also check Google

[@Isaac-ww2ft]

Did it fix the jerking and slow acceleration on your car?

[@big-c4486]

@@Isaac-ww2ft it helped a little bit but ended up having to replace it, very easy and simple to replace.

How did you clean the throttlebody? They said do not open the flaps because it’s electronic and will mess up the timing so we need to know how you cleaned it.

[@big-c4486]

@@valle2226 i ended up replacing it cause it was bad anyway.

[@bfrmda918]

When you took it off did you feel any oil or gas behind you’re throttle body? (Someone reply please)

[@big-c4486]

No, I didn't. It was pretty dry when I removed it.

[@1Down5UpOfficial]

So I'm having the same issue with my car. I completely took it out and cleaned it completely like everything the air box, the air intake tube everything to make sure nothing was getting in there. put it all back and it's still giving me the same issue. When I turn the car on it shuts down in a few minutes or after I start hitting the gas. Did you have those same symptoms? I never have trouble with my rpms but I do sometimes it'll jerk when I hit the gas or just die and come back immediately while driving. Not sure if that sounds familiar. I was never given a code on my car so It's hard to pinpoint the actual problem

[@leohanover3678]

I have 2012 avenger 4cylinder. My issue is having 0171 code ONLY. It's been on for about 15k miles. I have run scan and everything looks good except for my long trim is about 32. I've done all the trouble shooting but now it won't turn over with lightning bolt. My question is I thought throttle would throw its own code. Did yours?

[@iden1100]

I’m having the same problem on my 2008 avenger. No codes just my long fuel trim is high. I think it might be a vacuum leak but I did some diagnostic and couldn’t find any vac leak. I’m trying to smog the car but the o2 sensor monitor is not ready.

[@MrAcidGaming]

Do you have to reprogram/relearn it after you take it off and clean it??

[@gitchitsconi8128]

Yes cause the negative batterry is disconnected

[@onlyme8870]

When u mentioned no power is that like limp mode?

[@big-c4486]

Yes, it wouldn't accelerate at all, so yeah basically limp mode

[@onlyme8870]

@@big-c4486 @Big-C just a quick question about how much time from start to finish to disassemble to driving again would you say it takes. I am going to go diagnose a 2013 today or tomorrow that is always in limp mode. Also curious if this a problem for both engine sizes. Like the 4 cyl and 6 cyl. But I am checking a 6 cyl with the issue. Thx for keeping your vid up.

[@big-c4486]

It took me maybe 10 minutes to remove and install the new part, simple unbolt and unplug.

[@onlyme8870]

@@big-c4486 great thx. I have a Fiat took along time wasn't fun.

[@kxfromga5359]

Will it cause the car not to crank or start up

[@lachadoliver1645]

I’m having same problem mine won’t crank it’s tries to start but it won’t fully crank up

[@ronaldsmith7827]

try replacing the crank shaft sensor

[@itderryhoofdsrs]

do you have to reprogram it?

[@big-c4486]

Nope, just plug and play
