| Description of the problem | Truck intermittently and without warning lost power and went into "limp mode". Several error messages appeared on the dashboard including "hill start assist not available", "hill descent control fault", "service advance trac" and "see manual".. The wrench and engine lights also appeared. There would be no throttle response and the engine appeared to be running on 4 out of 6 cylinders. Took the truck to have the codes scanned and the following two codes appeared: p2111 throttle actuator control system - stuck open and p2112 throttle actuator control system - stuck closed. Took the truck to a ford dealer and was told my vin did not have a throttle body recall but in their opinion, it was a defective throttle body not covered under warranty. I replaced the throttle body with a bbk-1822 throttle body assembly myself. |
