07 F150... truck runs and drives fine but when you push the gas it does nothing. it will idle all over the place. Do these trucks have a cable or no. Any ideas on what this could be?

 

No they have no cable. It is a computer controlled throttle. As it is under warranty, take it in.

 

its electronic controlled. do you have a code P0506? or any codes at all? some people here have similar problems and clean the throttle PLATE(not covered under warranty so its a DIY), not the whole throttle body. do you have any aftermarket air filter or induction? how many miles? motor?

i'd take it in to the dealer. and have the latest program installed if it hasnt already.

 

yeah... ill be honest. the lower part of the truck got wet so im thinking it might have got wet. 30,000 miles. where is this module or sensor we are talking about? i imagine under the dash or maybe low outside? thanks fellas.

 

the throttle body is under the hood on top of the engine under the airbox. the pcm is in the drivers kick panel i think. i dought its the pcm. you need to take it to the dealer if its under warranty.

 

its not under warranty. pcm is the entire computer right? it runs and idles around the lot so does that narrow it down at all?

 

when i say wet i mean it sat in water... lol. didnt run it in the water tho.

 

yup it means the pcm is working otherwise it wouldnt run at all. see if you can start it with the pedal to the floor(it should not start). if it does its gonna require some diagnosing.

 

ok ill check and let you know. thanks bro for the info.

 

why is it not under warranty? is it because the water?

 

yeah.

 

the dealership doesn't know if your truck was in water unless it was reported on insurance

 

When i push the pedal to the floor and then try to crank it, it doesnt crank. What does that mean to whoever said check that?

 

it means somethings wrong. it should still crank but it shouldnt start. it disables the fuel system with the throttle all the way open.

 

No.... it was turning over but never started. I eventually got the pedal working and all and drove it to the dealership to fix it up right.
