TPS CEL

[jastunna1987]

i was adjusting my TPS and measuring the voltage one day to see if that contributed to my erratic idle problem. Well anyways, I think i might of accidently broke the tps by dropping it from like 2 inches above the ground. I installed it back in the tb and i've been gettin the CEL 7 (TPS). I got a new one from a friend. I installed it and everything, im still throwing the CEL 7, do i have to adjust or calerbrate it some how. I've tried resetting my ecu by pulling the 7.5a back up fuse & disconnecting the negative battery terminal...i'm still getting it. Any ideas??? Thanks.

what voltage did you set the nwe one at??

I havent really had time to set the voltage. Whats happens is that when the TPS is positioned all the way to closed throttle, the idle is at 1500 rpm, and if i increase the position to up the voltage, it will idle at 2000 rpm.

So right now, the tps is in, but not set correctly. If i do set the voltage at .5v at closed, and 4.5v at wot...will the CEL go away, or do i have to reset the ECU?

you didnt berak your first one. You just need to put it back in teh Trottle body correctly. I had the CEL for a while until I sat there and fixed it. I think I turned it as far to the left as it would go..cant remember

make sure the voltage is at .5 closed and 4.5 WOT.

can someone post the exact method used to measure the voltage? I've tried several times, and I dont think im doin it right. Where do you plug the positive lead from the voltmeter to measure the voltage?
