System Description

DESCRIPTION
The throttle position sensor is a rotating type variable resistor that rotates with the throttle body throttle shaft to sense the throttle valve angle. As the throttle shaft rotates, the output voltage of the throttle position sensor changes and the engine control module detects the throttle valve opening based on the change of the voltage.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
The throttle position sensor signal is important in the control of automatic transaxle. Shift shock and other troubles will occur if the sensor is faulty.
