Hey everyone, I need some help and advice. I have a 2008 Expedition XLT, I got this code yesterday and I’m wondering if I just need to clean the throttle body or do I need to replace it.
Code is P115E

Well, I would certainly start out by cleaning it out with some throttle body cleaner and see how it reacts to that before spending the money on a new throttle body. Any autoparts store will carry CRC Throttle Body Cleaner for less than $10 . Use an old toothbrush to scrub off the carbon around the butterfly plate. It's easy.

Ok great! Thank you. Would I have to do a relearn of the throttle? If so, how do I do that.

That's easy just turn the key to the last position before starting wait for it to cycle thru maybe 30 seconds to a minute and then you will hear a chime and she's good to go.
