117 Throttle Position Sensor - Above Limit: Function
The TP sensor determines the position of the throttle valve. The TP sensor is supplied with + 5 V through pin 53 of the DME control module and connected to ground through pin 34. The output signal voltage of the TP sensor ranges from approx. 0.5 V to approx. 4.7 V, depending on the position of the throttle.
The idle contact is generated from the voltage value which results during the deceleration phase.
The value for full load contact is calculated from the generated idle contact value.
