  • Throttle position switch

    Really? It's just a pair of switches in that big, obnoxious housing?

    I was messing about, figured that since there were so many random little issues with my car, I should check this... The last time it wouldn't start, rapidly depressing the throttle would make the tach jump when the key was on. There appears to be no wires affected by the movement of any part of the pedal or linkage/cable, so I piped the cover off the TPS and found that...

    How to properly set the adjustment of the tps?

      I believe the TPS is only used to sense idle and WOT positions. Not really much there. If you search the Repair forum, I remember a detailed thread about the TPS around 2 years ago...
