how to disable electronic throttle? If I decide to convert my truck to a cable throttle and get rid of the "fly by wire" what all do I need to do? Can I just turn off all the codes in Edit or do I need a reflash at the dealer.

Re: how to disable electronic throttle? You would have to add the wiring for the IAC and TPS (7 wires total), in addition to reflashing the PCM with a file for a cable driven throttle.
We've done these conversions both ways. It seems guys that have fly by wire don't want it, while guys that don't have it, want it!!

Re: how to disable electronic throttle? OK, so by reflashing with a file from a cable throttle vehicle is that going to cause my edit to not work because of a different VIN or can a dealer put in the required file and keep my VIN. Just trying to weigh the cost of this conversion-the ETC is too touchy.
