Question Help throttle body question

Ok so I swapped my battery and got a p0506. So I cleaned the tb and checked my hoses and im looking at replacing the electronic throttle control motor but all I can find are complete tb's. Does anyone know where I could get one? Thanks in advance!!!

did you disconnect your battery for 5 mins? if not...do that first. second make sure you hooked everything back up. if it comes back, then try adjusting your idle adjustment screw. then if that still doesnt clear it, i can only assume by "electronic throttle control motor" (and what google search of p0506 says) you mean your idle air controller. you can buy it at oreillys or autozone or ford for about 70 bucks.

Thanks for your help. I ended up having to replace the throttle body assembly because everything is electronic on the 05 and up. There is no more iac its now the electronic throttle control motor. I learned that the iac system is run from the pcm and sent to the etc which is attached to the side of the tb and if it goes out you have to replace the whole thing. So I installed the new tb and good to go. Just thought i'd share what I learned today and again thanks for your help
