How To Replace and Adjust the Throttle Position Sensor
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 มิ.ย. 2024
- Today we're replacing, and adjusting, a throttle position sensor. The sensor detects the opening and closing of the throttle valve and feeds that info to the vehicle's computer. This was performed on a 1997 Nissan Maxima. Check with your vehicle's repair manual for testing parameters.

Dude u r by far the best mechanic on here. The way u explain things r dead on. Ur not too fast or too slow. No wasted time or annoying intro. Nice and calm. Thank u . I had no idea about using meter and testing with dc for tps sensor. And ur paperclip to allegator clip truck is so neat I use it on everything with tight spots. Thank u so much. Keep slinging the wrench
Thank you! I truly appreciate it. Cheers.
After 2 years it is still helping people. Thank you very much, I will look up my own specs no reason to make you do it. Thanks again.
I love you videos I drive a 96 Nissan maximum I've been able to basically fix my car because of you and your videos thanks you so much
I already watched this once when replacing the TPS on my 95 Nissan maxima the first time. But I'm replacing it again. I thought the transmission was going out, it was slipping so bad. Some one told me to test the TPS because the idle was surging up and it was bad, replaced it and no more transmission problems. Thanks again as always for the videos!!
Good stuff man. Glad to help.
Really hoping this solves my issue too 😭 Sounds the same as mine
@CarsNToys Sir, I just watched your videos 6 years after you’ve posted it, do I still a chance to respond to my 2015 Nissan Xterra throttle body I don’t know how to test it
Did you have any codes?
@@CarsNToys i can't find my sweet spot. I dont have a thing to check it. My at oil temp light came on after trying to adjust it. Any advice?
Awesome video; I just changed the TPS in my 2003 Infiniti QX4 and notice I did it wrong by placing the TPS metal tab in the opposite side of the throttle. Thanks for this video.
Thank you. I have a Nissan Xterra 2006 - the check engine reader at O'Reilly's said we need a Throttle body positioning sensor. Grateful to find your video.
No wasting time, straight to the point,that was nice n brief
very clear how you explain the video.very helpful thanks a lot.
THANKS! I have been searching for months to fix my high idle on my Pathfinder. I finally found your video. Not even the Factory service manual explains this procedure.
You are the best... 😉
I've learned from all your tasks. Thanks a lot.
Great video excellent on giving the information and examples and details
Thanks, It did help me a lot. I removed mine, and when a placed it back it gave me problems, but now I know why, I never imagine I had to adjust the throttle.
You the man buckaroo!! Waving a ✋ from NW MONTANA. 97' Pathfinder
Damn! Thanks for that simple diagnose! I was about to buy a whole new throttle body! 👍👌✌
Glad to help!
Thank you so much for this detailed and easy to follow tutorial!

How would I reset the memory on the computer.Im told I'll have to take it to a dealer they have the code .But if I can do it myself I'll save a couple of hundred dollars.Thanks for any help u can give me.GOD BLESS AND HAVE A GREAT DAY!
Good informativ video. Gonna change mine tomorrow and wanted to know if i have something to watch out for. So now i know i should maybe do this with my small brother who reads the rpm of the motor and me tighting it down while figuring out what way (higher or lower) to go. Thanks for that buddy!
Wow thank you so much for creating this video I did the tps in my 2000 honda accord. I couldn't tell if I got it close or not but this is great help. thank you!!

Meant to say tps.
Thank you. Glad to help.
Hey buddy I just wanted to say I really appreciate the time you took to show these methods and skills. I've been stuck for a minute with this tps sensor. What model car are you working on here?

Nice easy to follow video,well done and thank's. Thumbs up.
Perfect, thank you.
Very good video on tps replacement and setting idle thanks
This was the most helpful video and in under ten minutes. Wish I would of found this one sooner. I hope the tps sensor is my problem for my low idle. This will be my third attempt. I've cleaned throttle body and iac valve so for my poor idle the culprit must be the tps. Thanks

very, very educative and on point.
My 2001 Infiniti I30 idles up and down when heated up. this been going on for a while. I've changed MAFS, Throttle body more than once. However, they're used but the problem continues. sometimes it stalls, you push the gas, the car don't move and you can see the meter go up but not moving. I'm fixing to change the position sensor like you did. but it's had to get around it for lack of space.
Can you help.
thanks.
Excellent video strait to the point.
Thank you.
I like your work
Thank you
First, I want to let you know that your Videos are very clear easy to follow. Now I changed the TPS in my 2003 Infiniti QX4 before seeing your video and mistakenly placed the TAB on the opposite side of the throttle pin. During testing, the engine was revving up and down and then stop working. Found out ECU was fried. Purchased one on eBay and after installing the ECU and the IACV engine did not start. Pull out codes P1610 and P1611 which I guess would be normal. Had my original ECU repaired and reinstalled but the engine won't start. At this point, I need to find one last option to get the engine up and running or tow the car to a mechanic for repairs. Greatly would appreciate any input.
Great video!
Very informative, subscribed
Awesome, thank you!
Great video thank you
very informative no bs
Thanks for the video. I have a 2005 Nissan Sentra 1.8 I might need to replace the throttle position sensor
Did it work?
Hi. Thanks so much for this!
Can u tell how to reset TPS on 99 Frontier XS truck.
Or tell us where to look?
Thank you for such an amazing presentation. I know you said Nissan snd Infinity but do you per chance know what the expected voltage range is for a 2006 Ford Explorer?
Very helpful.
THANK YOU GOOD WORK I JUST CHANGED MY TPS ON A 93 TOWN CAR WITH IS THE TPS SETTING?
02 nissan maxima gle and the scan tool tells me that the tps is too high then to low and it will not give me any rpm when pressing on the pedal. Have replaced the pedal throttle body fuel pump and a lot of things
i think your advice on doing the ignition reset method worked. i will check again in the morning with a cold start
Not starting the car right or do you have to start car I'm sorry for the question
Best video I have seen yet! I have a 2005 Hyundai Tiburon. It was "bucking" and hesitating. Also idling all over. I changed the TPS by myself but didn't know it had to be set to a specific spot and/or to reset the idle position memory. The car continued to have same symptoms. I decided to clean the IAC valve thinking maybe that was it. It ran pretty well for a day or two but it's back to the same old same old. It has to be that I put the TPS on wrong and I didn't reset the idle position memory! Do you have any tips on how to do that with an 05 Tiburon? Thanks!
Thank for the video. I just install a new tps on my 2001 infiniti i30. Iddleing is at 2000 rpm what is the idle speed for my car. Thank you
2000 nissian xterra 3.3 rpm with volt reading please
Amazing!

Great video bro
Tanks for the video man
Glad to help!
2002 Infiniti G20. Followed your instructions for no multimeter. Also attempted the reset via the 20x on/off. Worked better BEFORE changing. Help!
1997 inifniti q45 base model please!
Great vid , what would the setting be for tps and rpms fro a 1990 Buick Lesaber 3.8 , Thanks
thanks bro
you taught me something
Welcome. Glad to help
Yes, I did. I cleaned the TPS,wires connectors,that plug into the TPS,somehow , the symptom went away. The prongs were so dirty and rusty. Try that on yours
Nice video straight to the point subscribed hope ya still kicking out bud need more repair channels like yours
Great vid
Thank you
hey thanks so much!
Note before you remove old TPS, take a sharp object and mark plastic part of sensor and housing it sets in-use these marks when replacing new TPS---just like timing marks used on older cars.....
That's a great tip!
Base idle 2000 QX4 Great Video Excellent detail I have a meter also fluke which wire would I go to thanks.
what a nice guy
Thank for the video pal. I’ve been struggling with my 1990 Nissan Maxima Automatic.
After replacing a bad ECU, my idle goes up and down when warm.
I’m about to try the technique in this video.
Thanks again.
mine 2002 .. idle up & down after cleaning IAC
did you fix yours & how 😓
@@salsinger9985 It turned out that I needed a new IAC, and that year 1990 model was discontinued. I gave up on the car, and sold it to a mechanic.
Thank you for the detailed video, really helpful. I am looking to replace TPS on my 99’ Pathfinder 3.3L, could you let me know what the voltage adjustment ranges are?
THANKS 1000000
Really helpful video. I have a 1998 frontier with tps issues. When adjusting with the multi meter what wire are you probing?
