Save you guys a big hassle..he got lucky..but that bracket that holds the 2 bolts on one side of the throttle body...well you need to.loosen that bolt that holds it onto the motor ..it makes it a lot easier to put back on and line the bolts up with their holes plus when you put that lower hose clamp on..have the clamp screw facing upwards..not sideways ..a lot easier to tighten up
Idle Relearn Procedure As noted in a previous discussion (www.jeeppatriot.com/forum/showthread.php?t=41934), there are certain benefits to resetting your ECU. Apparently, the guys over at CaliberForumz have stumbled on a way to do this procedure without leaving your battery disconnected for an hour (www.caliberforumz.com/showthread.php?t=14197) 1). Turn ignition to Run, but do not start engine. 2). Wait for all idiot lights to turn off (last one will be the the throttle indicator - the two half-moons w/ a lightning bolt between them). 3). Over the course of 15 seconds, slowly depress the throttle all the way to the floor. Try not to waver or be too jerky, just a nice slow, smooth push. 4). Over the next 15 seconds, slowly let the throttle out in the same manner. 5). Allow car to sit for about an hour. (This is in the original procedure list, but i tried waiting just a minute and it worked anyway.) 6.) Start car and drive as you normally would. Your car should respond differently, almost instantly. The ECU fuel maps are reset to factory original specs, and the computer "forgets" all the previous info it has learned about your driving style. This gives the computer a fresh start to accomodate for a new driver
Had to have this done twice on my 2011. Wish I'd had this video before overspending at the dealership! Well done!
Thanks so much. Followed step by step and problem fixed. Hardest part was bottom clamp and bottom sensor

What tools were used? I am having this persistent problem. I have 2011 Jeep patriot. I am glad the part is not that expensive.
Can you drop the link where you got the replacement
My 2014 patriot just had this issue at 72k miles.
Awesome job! Great tutorial!
whats the update on the jeep?
great tutorial btw, best one ever!!!! I wish everyone did theirs like yours.
Thanks! I'm happy with the part so far. I'll be changing out the front lower control arms soon.
Glad to hear that!
Very useful I had the same problem was an easy fix
What was your problem you were having, to find out it was your throttle body? "Limp mode"? Stalling?? Or just followed the code it threw on?
Good video
Am I going crazy. Why can’t I locate the throttle body on my Jeep. It’s 2010. Pretty sure it has has a 163 2.2 crd engine. Help please 🙏🏻
yes, you will have to reset the light with a code reader! Also, that jeep is dirty!

Do you have to reprogram the throttle body after replacing it?
