Throttle Position Sensor/Switch: Adjustments

CLOSED THROTTLE POSITION SWITCH
Inspection
Verify that the closed throttle position switch (CTPS) is "ON" when the accelerator is in the released position.

NOTE: Check the CTPS ON / OFF condition by measuring the voltage between the CTPS switch connector and the ground wire.

Adjustment
Adjust the CTPS so the voltage readings correspond to specifications below.

Specifications:
- CTPS ON (idle position): 0 Volts
- CTPS OFF (other than idle position): 12 Volts
