Thread: What would cause TPS to play up ?

    I've heard of this problem caused by the speed sensor failing, sending the ECU into safe mode (the same as not connecting it on a 20v conversion)

    If the problem remains, no amount of re setting of the ECU will help. Sorry dude.

    you sure it only happens at 4G or when you get to a certain amount of throttle..cos i had problems with my tps..once it got to 1/4 throttle the car died in the arse..then once you backed off a little it would come back to life..but you could touch the accelerator and rev it to 6g or so with little input..

    What you mean by TPS switch ?
    Its correct one, already checked
    But i have noticed when i move dizzy about i get different rev limits but that just retards car i guess because dizzy been messed with

    When i try rev,rev it, it will miss rev, and have ot wait for revs to return to lower rev for it to rev again

    My 4AGE is doing it to, more when the engine is cold.

    It is the TPS, where its not making a contact when the throttle is opened and closed.

    You can adjust them with a small screw in the side of it and turn it (Like adjusting a dizzy) move it back untill it idles quite rough then bring it back JUST untill it comes back to normal idling.

    Well I hope that helps, but yeah your not the only one with the problem.

    Peace in the middle east!
