HELP TPS sensor for 1989 Civic DX Hatchback
I have an 1989 Honda Civic DX hatckback. I am getting error-code 7 off the ECU (Throttle Angle Sensor). I have read many posts on this website that are very helpful, but I cannot locate a Throttle Angle Sensor or TPS(I assume they are the same) anywhere. I have searched websites high & low. Everything but the TPS. I called my local Honda dealership today...They said it is not available as a separate part. They told me I would have to buy a whole new Throttlebody. Ok..if this is true, where is everyone here finding their TPS's? Also, does any manufacturer make an aftermarket throttlebody for an 89 civic dx hatchback? Most websites only list like 92 and up. Can someone tell me where to find that TPS? Help!
Just find someone that has a spare tb and gank the tps off of it. You have to use a dremel to cut slots in the rivets so you can take them out with a screwdriver. Ive got one that works...i live in High Point too
If you dont find one then ill hook you up with a good price on this one. Ill even install it and adjust it for you for a small fee
BTW-You cant just swap the sensor. You have to to adjust it or else your car will run like ****/not run at all. It should be .45v at idle and 4.5v at WOT. Good luck man...and let me know if ya need some help.
