    Default throttle body problem

    My wife has a 2010 rt that throws throttle body & tb ps codes.
    I have it apart & everything is clean & looks good, the tps resistance does not seem to agree with specs but i don't know if i'm reading it right
    the dealer wanted to replace the TB but she said no...no I'm figuring on doing that myself.
    Can anyone advise me on pitfalls associated with doing that ?
    Does it have to go back to the dealer to have the tps initialized ?
    HELP!

    The Throttle Position Sensor can be purchased separately from the Throttle Body for about $70. You will need a BUDS system to sync the unit.

    Be sure to check all the connectors going to the TB.

    At this time you may want to get JT's air cleaner. It will replace the stock air box and resonator. You will thank yourself later for that.

    If you really are into working on the RT yourself, you should consider buying a BUDS system of your own. It's a big investment, but worth it.

    Good luck.
