hey everyone. I went to start my 2005 and battery was dead. I jumped it and let it ran for 30 mins to charge. The car is in limp mode with the wrench light on. I tried disconnecting battery for awhile, running a jumper wire as suggested and other suggestions such as starting and restarting with no luck. I received the codes p2104, 2111 and 2112 which say throttle is stuck open...Any suggestions and be safe. Thank you

It's what most concerns me about throttle by wire vehicles. Too much to go wrong. Maybe it doesn't happen often, but when it does, look out below!!

Sounds to me like one of the components has gone bad. The "rheostat" on the throttle pedal? The motor actuator that opens and closes the throttle plate? The TPS? I looked up all three codes and don't have an answer. Too much to go wrong.

Sorry I don't have much of an answer for yo. I'm new to the fly-by-wire throttle scene. My other four vehicles all have cables. If something similar happens to mine, I'll be throwing parts at it.
