98 Durango 5.2 4x4 automatic

Asked by Blazergrl Nov 27, 2019 at 09:13 AM about the 1998 Dodge Durango 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

280,000 miles, truck suddenly started driving odd
then check engine light came on, ran code when I
got to work, it was the TPS, replaced it, reset
battery, was still wanting to stall when coming to a
stop, light came back on, throttle/pedal
sensor/switch circuit A. I was told it was the box
down by gas pedal, but I have a cable, noticed
yesterday that when the steering wheel turns left, it
stalls, turns right, it's fine. It stalled on me
yesterday (day after I changed part), I UNHOOKED
TPS SENSOR and it DID NOT STALL AGAIN. Any
help would be appreciated. I've been doing front
end work on it, took it to a shop to have cambers
reset and staring wheel.

The TPS should read between 4.0 and 5.5 volts. If the TPS reads outside of this range, the sensor must be adjusted. Loosen the throttle position sensor retaining screw with a Phillips- head screwdriver. Adjust the TPS by moving it back and forth until the voltage is between 4.0 and 5.5 volts.
