Default A little wiring help please

Hello, VW guy here. I'm using a Honda Throttle position switch on a 1.8T project, and I was hoping one of you knowledgeable Honda guys could tell me how the terminals are wired, since I dont have any manuals.

There are three pins across, and I would assume they are 5V, ground, and signal. Anyone know which is which?

Thanks very much

Sounds like a reasonable question to me!! I don;t know though..mid 90's civic. I do know that virtually all Hoinda TPS's from that era are the same. I appreciate your help

Do you have the wire colors from the plug? And it is a signal, ground and 5V.

I can get the colors. Just to be clear, I am using the TPS, and the portion plug for it I cut off the harness at the junkyard. In any case, I'll post the colors tomorrow, thankd for your interest

Place the TPS on the table so that the underside (exposed side) of the sensor is facing down.

From left to right: 5V Reference Voltage (+) - variable signal to ECU - GND (-)

Did you need a connector with a length of wire for the sensor? I just realized that I didn't send one with the sensor I sold you. If you need one, I've got one I can give you.

Thank you sir, you are a gentleman and a scholar. No need to send the plug, the yard across the street is full of Hondas, and the guy doesn't charge us for small stuff. Unless the one you have is new? Does Honda sell plugs and pins separately?

That's a no on both counts. They only sell the harnesses in whole.
