The DTC is an indication of a failure mode in the electronic throttle control system, which includes the accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor, electronic throttle body (ETB), and powertrain control module (PCM). It is accompanied by other DTCs which provide repair direction. Diagnose and repair those DTCS, and the P0606 will not be reset.
