no throttle! HELP!

got a 2014 Ram 2500 CCLB. 6.7, every once in a while ill start the truck up and go to take off and my throttle will disappear...its happened 3 times in the last 5 months and luckily they've all been in a relatively safe spot to have it happen... but ill turn the truck off for a few minutes till the radio and dash shuts off then ill start it back up and itll be fine.. sometimes ill have to shut off then on two times but itll go away for a couple months.. I cant find any forums on this happening with 4th gens.. can someone point me in the right direction so I can start troubleshooting?

Does the check engine light come on? if so check for "no boost pressure detected" possibly turbo vanes sticking closed.

no check engine lights are present. would stuck turbo veins prevent me from having any throttle at all? when I push on the go stick it does nothing..

If the turbo vanes were sticking it would feel like no throttle response but it would put the check engine light on and give black smoke. I would take out the pressure/temp sensor on the back side of the air intake horn and see what condition it's in. A single torx screw.
