2001 dodge durango w/ 4.7 4wd.
check engine light came on. the computer stated error
code was po161 (throttle senson). chilton book and
online both say that code is for a different sensor?
could the computer be right, the readout clearly stated
throttle sensor??

The computer doesn't tell you what the code means. It only supplies a code number. It was the code read that you were using that identified it incorrectly.
That code is for a bad heater in the O/2 sensor on the downstream side of bank 2
The one you need to change is in the right side exhaust pipe after the mini converter and before the main converter.
