Electronic Throttle Control Light

My ETC light came on today. What the heck is that for? It still seems to drive OK. I hate the thought of going back to the dealer again.

Did it come on for a few minutes, and then turn off ? if so, you probably just triggered it by Power Braking.. (hitting the gas and brake pedals at the same time). I have had it come on a few times.. It will leave a stored code but the light should turn off if all you did was hit the two pedals at the same time.

I did have the brake and throttle on at the same time while backing up to a trailer. It did stay on while the truck was running and it didn't show any codes after I shut down. After the truck sat for an hour, the light is not on any longer. Who knows with all this electronic stuff.
