Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)
Throttle position sensor should input a .5-volt reference signal to PCM at closed throttle and approximately 4.5-volt signal at full throttle. Voltage should change smoothly as throttle valve is opened and closed. If voltage is not correct, check throttle position sensor wiring circuit. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Individual component testing of throttle position sensor is not available from manufacturer.
NOTE:
If problem in throttle position sensor exists, throttle position sensor may set Fault Code No. 3 in PCM. See RETRIEVING CODES
