pvenuti Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 (edited) Can anyone confirm for me the proper test results when testing with a meter. I connect the meter to pins 2 and 4 and with the throttle closed I have five volts. When I open the throttle it drops to .83 and that’s it all the way to full open. I was expecting to see zero or a low reading with the throttle closed and a nice even increase as it opened. Assuming I’m testing this correctly and it is bad anyone know what I should expect to pay for one and if one brand is better than another and who to buy it from.

wtdash Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Hi, Check out this POST on Legacy Central about 1/2 way down where there are links to the FSM testing of the TPS. Gl, TD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvenuti Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 (edited) Thanks for the link. Looks like the stuff I have in the Haynes manul. I have re read it all a few times and now feel that my original testing was wrong. I have retested and can confirm that both with power and just the ohms test the sesor is fine. So I guess it's time to start a new thread about the symptom I'm having. Edited September 16, 2010 by pvenuti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
