What is your question?
I have a 2014 Ram 1500 and it keeps throwing the message "Service Throttle Control". I just put a new motor in it and I drove it a week and this came up. We have replaced the throttle body and the sensor behind the accelerator and still no luck. I'm getting frustrated cause nobody seems to be able to figure out the problem.
How long has your 2014 Ram 1500 had this problem?
a few weeks.

Hello, Dave here, contributing to RepairPal and providing expert advice since 2010. You did not mention which engine your RAM is equipped with. But, since you indicate the motor has been repalced and there's a message you are getting - first I would retrieve any diagnostic trouble codes that may have been set. These codes may give you clues on where to focus testing on. Second - even with codes and troubleshooting, I go back to the fact that the motor has been repalced. Because of this, I worry first about compatability - where did the engine come from? Used? Complete assembly? Did harnesses and components get swapped from the old engine? If the engine is not a direct exact replacement, you may find incompatabilities that may be difficult to resolve. Also, check wiring harnesses - did you swap the old one with the new? Too many questions; seek guidance from the motor supplier, whoever did the work and any other relevant resources. Or reach out to a shop near you to help if you don't have credible assistance there. https://repairpal.com/auto-repair-near-me Click the link or call us at 877-913-1554.
