Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) Replacement

Upper Manifold Assembly - Exploded View:

REMOVAL:

1. Disconnect the electrical connector from the TPS.
2. Remove the TPS attaching screws.
3. Remove the TPS.
4. Remove the throttle shaft cover.

CAUTION: The TPS is an electrical component and must not be soaked in any liquid cleaner or solvent, as damage may result.

INSTALLATION:

1. With the throttle valve closed, install the throttle shaft cover, position the TPS on the throttle shaft, then align both the TPS and throttle shaft cover with the mounting holes.

NOTE: The hardware used to attach the throttle position sensor is factory coated with a thread-locking adhesive. If the TPS is removed for service, inspect the attaching screw threads for thread-locking material. If there is not enough thread-locking material (adhesive or compound) on the threads to ensure proper re-locking, clean the screw threads and apply Loctite 262 or equivalent to the screw threads before reassembly.

2. Install the TPS attaching screws and tighten to 2.0 Nm (18 lb.in).
3. Connect the TPS electrical connector.
