Throttle Position Sensor (TPS): Testing
- Disconnect the throttle position sensor connector.
- Measure the resistance between terminal 1 (ground) and terminal 4 (sensor power).
Standard value : 3.5~6.5 kΩ
- Measure the resistance between terminal 1 (ground) and terminal 2 (sensor output).
- Operate the throttle valve slowly from the idle position to full open position and check that the resistance changes smoothly in proportion with the throttle valve opening angle.
- If the resistance is out of specification, or fails to change smoothly, replace the throttle position sensor.
Tightening torque
TPS: 1.5~2.5 N-m (15~25 kg-cm, 1.1~1.8 lb-ft)
