Code p2167
I came back from vacation and tried to start my jeep. Battery was dead on my 2012 JK. Jump started it and it started but still wanted to get a new battery because it was weak. Tried to drive and the throttle is not responding and also there is the "red lightning bolt" on the dash. I checked the code with the onboard code trick and it came up P2167 Accelerator pedal position sensor 2 max stop performance)
Car was running normally before I went on vacation...any ideas? It wont do anything besides idle.

Since it was running fine before, it seems the first possible cause doesn't apply.
Still under warranty? If so, have the dealer look at it if you are also covered for towing to them.
They can do the re-learn thing.
You can clear the code if you have a scanner or programmer that can do that. See if it returns to normal.
Some programmers can do the re-learn function.
How long did the JK sit while you were on vacation? Mine has sat for many weeks without the battery going dead.
You may have something else going on, too.
