Test a Throttle Position Sensor using a Multimeter or OBD II Scanner • Cars Simplified

I have a code P0122 is that the tps or the pedal position sensor.

On my 2003 Corolla with the engine not running .it reads 11 % battle all the way to the floor show 77% I was wondering if this was correct now the engine is not running

Nice video buddy.

I needed a tps. It was $400 at the Nissan dealership so I called a used parts scrap yard and bought a throttle body with the tps on it for $60. Worked like a charm.

Why wouldn't you read off the prong positions like every other person does? 1,2,3 or E2, VC, & VTA? There are people who don't know where to connect their positive and neg leads for both tests out of engine? Personally I think it's because you're a bit lazy and were more interested in getting to your scan tool, because it's neat and you don't have to do anything. You spent more time talking about a scanner that almost nobody has as opposed to spending more detailed time in explaining what you're doing....which everyone needs. Just my opinion.

Hi, I have a 2019 2.0 diesel transit custom and I have the same scan tool. My TP is at 100% with just the ignition on? With the engine running in idle and I push down the pedal to increase revs it goes from 100% down to anywhere to 20-30%? Is this normal? Thanks

Should sensor E /D are equall?

If at any point that TP reading does neither and goes blank (-%) is that also a sign of a bad TPS?

what is the ideal range of throttle position

best fuel average tps sensor voltage at idle

Thank you for sharing! I didn’t know how to use the OBD2 reader that way.

So is the car running when you're testing it

So if mine is 93 percent on a Ford Transit what do i make out of it? The car drives thought

Thanks for the video m8!

Okay thanks

Sir. My. Scanner.. Launch x431 promin. Please working. Information. Thanks. Happy

My tp says 5.1% when at rest does that mean it must be replaced ?

I’m using a scan tool looking at the graph chart. When I press the accelerator pedal, there is a slight drop before it rises. And once the pedal goes back down to the floor there is a slight drop on the graph chart as well. Is that normal?
