Had a problem with power and hanging up at around 50 mph. Took truck(2001 Ram 2500) to the dealer and they said injection pump was bad and the APP sensor was showing ok on scanner. Swapped out pump myself and am still having the problem with haning up at 50. I assume it's the sensor and they probably won't change it for me(I have a waranty through them). Anyway, could I take a chance and get one from a boneyard if they refuse to fix it? What kinda odds am I running that the used one will be bad too? Thanks

 

its a flip up if its good or not autozone sells new ones and they now have a warranty on them for either 1 or 2 years.

 

re cal it first and try for a bit

turn key on but dont start
slowly depress throttle 100%
slowly let throttle up
turn key off
recal completed

 

I checked with an autozone and they said they couldn't get that part. Is it just the sensor or the whole unit like the dealer tries to sell you?

Just replace the sensor.

 

I got one from the local parts house $350 later no more dead pedal in the middle of intersections !

"Standard" made it. No calibration required.
