Throttle Position Sensor: Testing and Inspection




1. Connect the SSTs to the DLC-2.
2. Verify that the throttle valve is at the CTP.
3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.




4. Select the PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD function of the NGS.




5. Select "TP V" on the NGS display. NGS measures and shows the voltage.
- If not as specified, adjust the TP sensor.

Specification:
CTP: 0.1 - 1.1 V
WOT: 2.8 - 4.5 V
(Verify that the voltage increase is directly proportioned to the throttle valve opening angle.)
