I have an 06 ranger with the 4l sohc, I just did my front timing chain tensioner and thermostat housing(aluminum) today, and everything works fine, however, if I try to perform a clear flood mode it won't regester and it'll throw a P0122 throttle position code and on startup the idle will be a little wonky, but it corrects itself. Because it's cable throttle it really isn't affecting driving, and cruse control still works, id just rather not have a check engine light sitting on my dash, as this ranger has never had one. I did disconnect the tps sensor, and i was an idiot because I actually unbolted it rather than just disconnecting the pigtails. Is there any way to fix this? Does it just have to take a week to relearn everything? If I disconnect the battery it won't throw the code on the next startup, but it will throw it if I try the clear flood mode.
