How do i find a electronic throttle control light for a 2010 patriot

What is the etc light on a 2010 Dodge Avenger?The lightning bolt indicator on the Avenger's dash is the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) light. It signifies a problem with the throttle system that controls the amount of fuel provided to the engine. Problems with the throttle body sensor and the throttle body can cause the lightning bolt to illuminate

The flashing bolt is the issue. You need a mobile auto electrician with a pro grade scan tool computer.

The lightning bolt warning light alerts you to a fault in the electronic throttle control system in your vehicle. This may be a faulty throttle body, the throttle body sensor or possibly the throttle body control motor which is what controls the opening and closing of the throttle body as the motor requires more fuel.

My car will not start but the red lightning bolt is comin...

..

not ttold is engine dead or just slow MPH limited,
lighting bolt means TBW is hard failed.
all cars do this, driven far enough.
throttle by wire.
one must repair it first. to end limphome tbw.

p1607, means engine temp changed radially 2, starts
or battery low and was overloaded. confusing pCM
P0004 is really p00A i bet and means bank1 cam 1 slow response
P0113-INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH this last error means IAT was pulled off intake hose
and keyed, on, this never fail, so I say this.
I say your scan tool fails to do JEEPs, and old old tool
not 2008 OBD2 compiant tool>?
the LIGHTING bolt words in the glove box guide said

this
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light
This light informs you of a problem with the
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system. If a
problem is detected, the light will come on
while the engine is running. Cycle the ignition
key when the vehicle has completely stopped and the
shift lever is placed in the NEUTRAL position. The light
should turn off. If the light remains lit with the engine
running, your vehicle will usually be drivable; however,
see an authorized dealer for service as soon as possible. If
the light is flashing when the engine is running, imme-
diate service is required and you may experience reduced
performance, an elevated/rough idle or engine stall and
your vehicle may require towing. The light will come on
when the ignition is first turned ON and remain on
NOW THE CAUSES.

THE PEDAL POTS ARE BAD UNDER FOOT. TPS 1,2,
THE TPS IN THE TB IS BAD
THE MOTOR IN THE TB IS BAD, P2100?
OR THE TV IN THE TB IS GUMMED UP AND STICKS.
WE CLEAN THE TB/TB FIRST. OR USE REAL SCAN TOOL

TV = THROTTLE VALVE
TB = THROTTLE BODY
TPS =THORTTLE POS. ENSORE 4 IS COMMON
SEEMS YOUR TOOL MISSES ALL P21XX CODES OEM JEEP FACTORY CODES..
OLD TOOLS FAIL TO WORK. COMMON,
20 CODES JUST FOR THROTTLE ERRORS

Could be any one of a number of sensors for engine control . Mass air flow sensor , TPS - throttle position sensor, or APP- accerator pedal position sensor etc... Without testing an looking at scan tool data ,who could say for sure . How does the vehicle idle ? how does the vehicle run at cruise speeds ? Does the vehicle have electronic throttle control ? 2010 - i'm sure it probably does . Is the check engine light lit ? Your best bet would be to take it to a qualified repair shop.

it's a system, not a single part,
it has the form of this , throttle by wire, (google that and read)

2 throttle pedal, TPS like POT.s (throttle angle)
2 TPS sensors in throttle body (redundant for safety)
1 TV throttle valve motor in the TB.
and the PCM brains. (and software to match)

that was 1st hit, in google.
why not post symptoms first. then ask so we can be on same page.
no? or just curious, why not google it or youtube it?

where are the controls set at for 4wd?
and is this dirt or pavement....???

double posted and still no details.
define pulls.
what pulls and when.
we just dont know
why not get the car serviced,?
have a real mech, drive care and see if something pulls.
and why.
why not.

Take it back to the yahoo who messed it up they sound like they sabotaged your truck I\'d go back ask for the owner explain what happened if they care about there cust you will b handled

Well, how often would you like it to malfunction? If you say NEVER, it will explode today! (or at least, that would be MY luck...LOL!)

What your ECT needs is to be PROPERLY DIAGNOSED. There are several things that can cause the hesitation and the light to come on, including faults located in the accelerator pedal position sensors, the throttle position sensors, the Powertrain Control Module, or any of the wiring between them.

There is no "cleaning" to be done. Attempts to "clean" an electronic throttle control unit can totally destroy the unit. This is NOT like the old throttle bodies that could be cleaned out by holding the throttle plate open and dousing it with carb cleaner. To begin with, forcing the throttle plate open by hand can break the gears in the throttle control. Then if you do manage to get it open, the carb cleaner can destroy the electronics.

With all that said, there are a couple of Technical Service Bulletins on your Jeep that involve the ECT light coming on and poor drivability symptoms. At least one of them involves reprogramming of the engine control computer.

It should also be noted here that many of the major components of your engine control system are covered under the federally-mandated 8-Year/ 80,000 mile emissions warranty. Reprogramming of the computer is definitely covered under this provision.

you could have damaged or shocked ur proximity sensor or other sensors attached to your bumper and now it starts to malfunction that affect ur cars other function and controls/ have it diagnosed using an electronic scan tool designed for ur cars computer parameter to locate the faulty sensor before changing unnecessary parts...
