Throttle body and electronic throttle body issues on the Honda Accord can cause the engine to stall, not start, trigger warning lights on the dashboard, and lead to acceleration problems like hesitations or surges. So, what exactly does the throttle body do? Essentially, the throttle body controls the amount of air entering the engine. When you press the gas pedal, it sends a signal to the computer, which then activates a small electric motor in the throttle body. Replacing your car's throttle body can range from $370 to $1,500, with labor costs typically ranging from $70 to $260, and parts costing between $110 and $600.
