Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) Replacement

Throttle Position Sensor:






REMOVE OR DISCONNECT
1. Resonator.
2. Electrical connector.
3. Two Throttle Position (TP) sensor attaching screws, lockwashers and retainers.
4. TP sensor.

INSTALL OR CONNECT
1. With throttle valve in the closed position, install TP sensor on throttle body assembly, making sure TP lever lines up with the TP sensor drive on the throttle shaft.
2. Retainers and two TP sensor screws. Tighten TP sensor attaching screws to 2.0 Nm (18 lb in).
3. Electrical Connector
4. Resonator.

IMPORTANT: If the TP sensor or throttle body is replaced, the Electronic Brake and Traction Control Module (EBTCM) must learn the TP sensor idle position voltage with the new component(s) installed. This is necessary to ensure effective engine torque reduction during Acceleration Slip Regulation (ASR) events. This procedure can be done using Techline equipment. Refer to Throttle Position Sensor Learn Procedure under this heading.
