3. Measure the resistance between the throttle position sensor side connector terminal 2 and terminal 4.
4. If the resistance is outside the standard value, or if it doesn't change smoothly, replace the throttle position sensor.

NOTE: After replacement, the throttle position sensor should be adjusted. (Vehicles without auto-cruise control system) (Vehicles with auto-cruise control system)
