My throttle control light has come on and blinked while driving
What is your question?
2016 Jeep Compass only 40,000 miles on it just bought it within he last 6 months used. The throttle control warning light came on one day while driving and I did not know what the light was. I googled and it's the electronic throttle control, does anybody know if this is an expensive or easy fix ? I continued to drive it because it only came on that one time, but now it acts super crazy if u drive it and the check engine light is also on now so I have not driven it.... what to do ???
How long has your 2016 Jeep Compass had this problem?
RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 2016 Jeep Compass. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
The most likely cause is a failed throttle body or a that the system needs cleaned and adaptive memory reset plus the throttle retrained. Either way specialty tools are needed to correctly repair this issue. Fairly low mileage for this issue to be a failed part. My guess is that something went wrong electrically like the battery may have been replaced or disconnected for some reason.
