So I think the last thread i had may have been deleted to do having a vague title, or I just can't find it, so here's a new one.

I installed a new TPS on my car over the weekend, and I am now having a check engine light for it, I have a voltmeter handy, I just need to know which wires to test to check the reading of the sensor. I believe its .5v at closed throttle and i forget full throttle. So if someone could help me there, that'd be awesome.

Also, I didn't mess with the MAP sensor, and I now have a CEL for it as well, would there be a reason for the two to be linked? Or a steady high idle being linked to one of these issues?

Thanks for any help

 

In case the signature wasn't enough, it's a d16y8, if that matters since I believe all TPS are the same between D/B/F/H

 

your car wouldnt idle if the map was bad. you prolly have a slight vacuume leak. at closed throttle you should read .5 v and at WOT you should have 4.5. if you read 0 or 5 v you have an open or short in the wiring.

 

which wires do i measure across? or is it only two wire? I'm somehow thinking it's three wire.

I sprayed starter fluid under the hood and it didn't seem to bog down on anything.
Although I was thinking I may have to adjust the throttle cable and i could have ****ed that up a little causing some of the idle issue

 

does anybody have help on the matter?

 

yea you have the connectors swaped around. try and swap them and see if that helps and I will try and get the specs for the tps.
