Default Throttle position sensor codes

I plugged the code reader into my truck today cause I had the flashing check engine light, and I got 5 codes related to the throttle position sensor.

P0222 Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch "B" Circuit Low
P0223 Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch "B" Circuit High
P2104 Throttle Actuator Control System - Forced Idle
P2110 Throttle Actuator Control System - Forced Limited RPM
P0122 Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch "A" Circuit Low

I hadnt drove the truck for 2 weeks prior to yesterday when the flashing SES light popped on. It goes away and there never was a solid SES light.

The only thing that changed prior to this is I had to change all my plugs cause I was having misfires like crazy and I had to do a trans swap cause I had no first gear. Then I made a 700 km trip to work and never touched the truck for 2 weeks, I had no SES light or flashing SES during the trip.

Is the TPS sensor shot or should I try cleaning it... if its possible. I dont know much about these fly by wire throttles, Im used to throttle cables like my 99 stang has.

There is a way to reset the fly by wire that's really easy. There's a couple threads on here about it and it's supposed to work pretty well. Try searching for throttle response if that helps any

The thing is, the truck drivers perfectly fine. I cleared the codes and drove it about 30km and the check engine light never flashed or came on.

Saskatoon? I was just there a few weeks ago teaching to Sasktel....it's cold there!

If they cleared, you're good to go; if they come back, open Google, enter the code in the search window, and you'll get plenty of links describing the code, and what to look for (repair/fix). It's that easy!

Ok. Ill do that if they come back. I was about to take the truck to the nearest ford dealer and trade it in on a Raptor if any problems showed up yesterday.

Funny how I have a V6 stang and it has only needed a rear caliper in the 4 years Ive owned it. I own the truck for less than a year and I already had to change the trans, **** around with plugs and it looks like I need to do a brake job on it.... yay for a $600-800 brake job.

Bucko: I actually live east of Saskatoon but im always there. Its not cold here... what are you talking about? Oh yeah, your from Texas/Florida. Were you teaching Sasktel about the 3G network that they JUST put up?
