DoubleFrame Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Hey guys I have an issue on one of my CT713 Ai 370hp. The truck has been having issues this whole week where it’s accelerating on its own. It doesn’t matter if it’s in gear or not it revs up randomly. Today it went all the way to 2200 rpms while entering a job site. I changed the throttle sensor a couple days ago and it didn’t help, same issue. I have the truck running at the yard and it’s acting like nothing is wrong. I’m checking wires now to make sure there isn’t a short somewhere. Any suggestions on what the issue could be? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACKX Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Outside of checking for shorts in the throttle pedal wiring ...did you try taking the cruise control switch and the accel/decel switch out of the equation? Take the dash panel off that side and make sure the harness isn’t melted together on those 2 connectors 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post fjh Posted February 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2021 I also have a question is it throwing up any codes Check engine light? the other thing is pull down the kick panel on the passenger side an check the VECU plug depending on how its mounted and your climate a windshield leak can cause issues like this There! Clean and check the engine ground below the starter before you do to much searching! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleFrame Posted February 19, 2021 Author Share Posted February 19, 2021 I was able to locate the issue last night. VECU Wires were rubbing against the kick plate. Thanks guys for the response. The truck worked fine today. I added a foam padding to prevent this from happening again. IMG_6122.MOV 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
