Hi guys I'm having major issue with my ram! My truck went into limp mode two day ago in which I could reset by pressing on the accelerated pedal three time which last for a little while then it would go into limp mode again.. I manage to get it somewhere to use a code reader on it which said low voltage on tps.. Well I replace it today.. It running good for a little while then it went into limp mode again but it was fast idling this time.. I pull off the road and shut it off and did the reset again.. It running right again no light came on but it running with a slight hesitation.. Can someone tell what i'm doing wrong?? Please! The old throttle body had a lot of oil carbon buildup on it...
CTD or Gas? Sorry, didn't see the throttle body comment. Have you run the codes again?

Tps is on the throttle body, not the accelerator pedal. Next time it happens, take it to autozone or something and have them scan the codes. Then search on google what that exact code is. You may get lucky and find a service manual online which will then tell you how to troubleshoot it.
If it is setting the low tps voltage code every time it is probably an issue with the wiring going to the tps sensor.

Tps is on the throttle body, not the accelerator pedal. On a 5.7 Hemi there is absolutely not a TPS on the throttlebody.. The pedal incorporates the TPS which sends a signal to the computer telling it how far the pedal is pushed(aka how far open it is).. The computer then sends a signal to the stepper motor(which is on the throttle body) telling it how far to open the throttle blade.
