Throttle Position (TP) Sensor

The nonadjustable, throttle shaft-driven TP sensor is mounted on the throttle body assembly opposite the throttle cam lever. The TP sensor senses the throttle valve angle and relays the information to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).Knowledge of throttle angle is needed by the PCM to properly control the injector control signals, pulses.
