5.
If the resistance is out of specification, or fails to change smoothly, replace the throttle position sensor.
Tightening torque TP Sensor : 1.5~2.5 Nm (15~25 kg·cm, 1.1~1.8 lb·ft) |
Check item | Data display | Check conditions | Throttle valve | Test specification |
Throttle position sensor | Sensor voltage | Ignition switch : ON | At idle position | 300 ~ 900mV |
Open slowly | Increases with valve opening | |||
Open wide | 4500 ~ 5000mV |
Disconnect the throttle position sensor connector.
Measure resistance between terminal 1 (sensor ground) and terminal 4 (sensor power).
Standard value : 3.5 ~ 6.5 kΩ |
Connect a pointer type ohmmeter between terminal 1 (sensor ground) and terminal 3 (sensor output).
Operate the throttle valve slowly from the idle position to the full open position and check that the resistance changes smoothly in proportionwith the throttle valve opening angle.
If the resistance is out of specification, or fails to change smoothly, replace the throttle position sensor.
Tightening torque TP Sensor : 1.5~2.5 Nm (15~25 kg·cm, 1.1~1.8 lb·ft) |
Check item | Data display | Check conditions | Throttle valve | Normal indication |
Idle position switch ● Service data item | Switch state | Ignition switch : ON (check by operating accelerator pedal repeatedly) | At idle position | ON |
Open a little | OFF |
Disconnect the throttle position sensor connector.
Check the continuity between terminal 3 and sensor ground.
TPS voltage | Continuity |
Higher than 300~900mV | Non-conductive (∞Ω) |
300~900mV | Conductive (0Ω) |
If out of specification, replace the throttle position sensor.
