2006 DODGE RAM SRT-10 ignition

P2101-ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR PERFORMANCE
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
When Monitored:
With the vehicle running, ETC Motor not in Limp Home mode, and the TPS adaptation is complete.
Set Condition:
The PCM recognizes too large of an error between the actual position of the Throttle Plate and the Set Point
position. One trip fault and the code will set within 5 seconds. Three good trips to turn off the MIL ETC light is
flashing.
Possible Causes
THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY
LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE
PCM
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
Diagnostic Test
1.ACTIVE DTC
NOTE: Before continuing visually inspect the throttle blade and bore for any obstructions. Icing of the throt-
tlebodymayhavecausedthiscodetoset.
NOTE: Low battery voltage can also cause excessive current draw, in very hot and very cold ambient tem-
perature. Make sure the battery can pass a Load test before continuing.
NOTE: Diagnose any 5-Volt Supply, Battery, and TP Sensor DTCs before continuing.
Ignition on, engine not running.
With a scan tool, read DTCs.
