| Description of the problem | While accelerating onto the freeway from the on-ramp, all throttle control went away and the truck started decelerating along with warning lamps turning on the driver display panel. Steep hill descent fault, sensortrac fault. Had to pull coast over to the shoulder under rough idle and turn off the vehicle ignition. After cycling the ignition, the throttle control came back. This has happened at least 5 times now during the last week or so. After a google search online, i have found that this seems to be a very common occurance with ford f-150's and seems to be related to the electronic throttle body controller. Ford has tsb 16-0139 documenting the issue |
