Default Need help with CEL code please.

Well I installed an aftermarket throttle rotor, and now I'm getting 7 short flashes. Is that throttle angle sensor?

According to Helms manual it is. But my question is, how the hell do you adjust/fix it?

I can't figure it out!

Heh, yeah just the rotor. I pretty much bought it out of boredom to see if did anything. I'm getting 7 short flashes, and apparently that's the TPS?

As far as I know you can't adjust it?

what is the differance between the new rotor, and stock? Are you sure that you installed it correctly?

I'm not too familiar with the product....do you have a url, so I can read up on what we are dealing with?

I'm pretty sure it's installed right. The car runs and revs nice. Just the code. I'll try and dig up a URL for it.

If everything looks good, have you tried to reset the ecu?

Several times. Could I be interpreting the code wrong?
