Testing the throttle position sensor on an 1992 Legacy EJ22

Featured Replies

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.

Hi,

Check out this POST on Legacy Central about 1/2 way down where there are links to the FSM testing of the TPS.

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.
