Testing a TPS.. stupid question alert
How do you do it? I searched but I don't have much experience testing sensors. Do I just take the red lead from the voltmeter and pop that against the red wire and then ground the black wire? I was trying all that but i got no power whatsoever.
What do I need to do to get a reading? I turned the car to the 'on' position and turned on the voltmeter to read dc power, but I got no signal.
Just take the red testprobe to the red wire on the TPS outlet and ground the black lead to the battery?
Weird.. I know i'm dumb but someone please help me.

I saw that one...
but I missed this very important line...
First, cut a small window on the insulation of the middle wire at the TPS.
I've been trying to stick in in the wire port there
thinking I could get a signal w/o splicing a wire but that didn't work.. that line is the obvious one I'm missing.. durrr
thanks man

my probes were sharp at the end so i pierced the wire and then covered it back up with the insulation that was on it.. test the green and the middle.. mine were GRN, RED/BLU, and RED so i had to figure that out myself
