With Automatic Transaxle

Inspection of resistance
1. Disconnect the throttle position sensor connector.




2. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between throttle position sensor terminals A and C.

Resistance: 4-6 k/Ohms

3. If not as specified, replace the throttle position sensor.
4. Reconnect the throttle position sensor connector.

Inspection of output voltage Using the SST (104 Pin Breakout Box)




1. Connect the SST to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) as shown.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
3. Measure voltage at PCM terminal 89 under the following conditions.




4. Disconnect the SST.
5. If not as specified, adjust the throttle position sensor.

Using the SST (NGS)




1. Connect the SSTs to the data link connector 2.
2. Select the "PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD" function of New Generation Star (NGS) tester.
3. Select TPS on the SST display.
4. Measure the TPS output voltage under the following conditions.




5. Disconnect the SSTs.
6. If not as specified, adjust the throttle position sensor.
