I've been having problems with these two codes lately. The wrench light keeps coming on. about two weeks ago I took the car to the dealer here in Reno. They can't seem to read the codes. They also put almost 400 miles on the car and couldn't get the light to come on. Either they just don't know what they're doing or they're screwing me around.

I just had a Steeda CAI and a custom Predator tune done today (by RDW Automotive here in Reno). The guy cleared the computer before he even started. He took it for a quick test drive and the wrench light came on twice. He mysteriously managed to pull the codes P2106 and P2135. I know they're for the throttle control. And I'm pretty sure there is a TSB for this......05-14-4.

1. What is wrong with Ford?

2. Do I need to tune the computer back to stock when I take it to Ford to fix this? I'm sure they will want to read the computer.

3. Is there a place (online) I can get a detailed description and copy of this TSB without having to pay?



Thanks

1. What is wrong with Ford?

Some techs are just incompetent. And 400 miles? Damn, someone went joy riding in your car. I'd lose my mind if they tacked on 400 miles. I'd say find another dealer.

2. Do I need to tune the computer back to stock when I take it to Ford to fix this? I'm sure they will want to read the computer.

Put the stock Air Box and tune back on. Gives them one more reason not to help you by keeping the aftermarket one on.

Well, I'm getting sick of trying to deal with Ford. They aren't going to take my word for it. I haven't taken the car back in but I know they aren't willing to fix the problem. So, I bought the TPS kit the TSB says to use. I can install the TPS but how am I going to reprogram the PCM? Does it even need it? The instructions with the kit doesn't say anything about the PCM. The TSB sheet does, but the kit instructions does not.
