TPS Issue


Recommended Posts

I have 5v stuck on my middle signal wire (which references throttle all the way open?) I am trying to calibrate it by using a multimeter. One on earth and one on signal but I cant because It is stuck on 5v. It is the middle wire. The one next to it is a ground and other side is constant 5v. Any suggestions? I have tried another sensor with same result

Disconnect the TPS from the loom and check the resistance from that centre wire to either side with multimeter as you open and close the throttle. If it does not change resistance then it is probably faulty. If it changes resistance it is probably working, and would point to a wiring fault (ie, signal wire & power wire shorted together somewhere in the loom).

Repeat test with spare TPS to reassure yourself.
