Throttle Position Switch: Testing and Inspection




DESCRIPTION
The throttle position switch consists of a wide-open throttle position switch and a closed throttle position switch.
The wide-open position switch sends a signal to the A/T control unit when the throttle valve is open at least 1/2 of the full throttle position. The closed throttle position switch sends a signal to the A/T control unit when the throttle valve is fully closed.

Because the Throttle Position Switch is used for automatic transmission control, refer to "Throttle Position Switch, Transmission" for testing information.
