07. Throttle position sensor located - 2007 Suzuki Forenza Sedan

Throttle position sensor
A throttle position sensor (TPS) is a sensor used to monitor the throttle position of a car. The sensor is usually located on the butterfly spindle/shaft so that it can directly monitor the position of the throttle. More advanced forms of the sensor are also used, for example an extra closed throttle position sensor (CTPS) may be employed to indicate that the throttle is completely closed.

It is located in the throttle body assembly . Your vehicle has electronic throttle control .
Throttle Body Assembly
The throttle body assembly contains the following components:
?€¢
The throttle blade

?€¢
The throttle actuator motor

?€¢
The throttle position (TP) sensor 1 and 2

The throttle body functions are similar to a conventional throttle body with the following exceptions:
?€¢
An electric motor opens and closes the throttle valve.

?€¢
The throttle blade is spring loaded in both directions and the default position is slightly open.

?€¢
There are 2 individual TP sensors within the throttle body assembly.

Oh yea it has two TPS - throttle position sensors ! An you have to replace the whole assembly !

The 07 Tahoe has a fly by wire system so there is two throttle position sensors. One on the throttle body the other is in the gas pedal assembly. Check them with a scanner the voltage should be almost the same voltage.

The Idle air control or throttle positioning sensor is located right on the throttle. Follow the throttle pedal cable to the bracket which the sensor is located

fly by wire.
Throttle body failure, clean it and pray.
bad TPS wires at same place.
- Faulty electric throttle control actuator (TP sensor 1 and 2)
- Throttle Position Sensor harness is open or shorted
- Throttle Position Sensor circuit poor connection
- Faulty accelerator pedal position sensor

It has to be on the throttle shaft.

How to Replace a Throttle Position Sensor
(DIY & Save up to $135.75 ) - Time: 2.1 hours

Parts:
1. Throttle Position Sensor - $ 55.44

Tools:
1. Scan Tool
2. Screwdriver
3. Multimeter

Procedure:
1. Locate the OBD data link connector (DLC). Refer to your owner’s manual for the specific location.

• Tip: The OBD-I data link connector is usually located in the engine compartment near the battery or the fuse box. The OBD-II connector (post 1995 cars) is usually located beneath the instument panel next to the steering column.

2. Turn your key to the“ON” position. Do not start the engine.

3. Plug your scan tool into the OBD data link connector. Turn on the scan tool and select the appropriate steps to read the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).

Scanner plugged into OBD-II data link connector.

• Tip: The OBD-II diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is a 5 character alphanumeric code. The first digit is a letter that indicates the component group, the second digit is OBD mandated or manufacturer specfic, the third digit is a subgroup, and the fourth and fifth digits define the component and basic problem.
  

• 4. Locate the throttle position sensor.

• 
  
• Throttle position sensor
  

• 5. Disconnect the electrical connector from the throttle position sensor.

• 
  
• Electrical connector removed
  

6. Test the resistance of the throttle position sensor (TPS) with a digital multi-meter. If the resistance is out of specifications, the TPS must be replaced.

• 7. Remove the throttle position sensor.



Removing sensor mounting screws

8. Install the new throttle position sensor. Tighten the mounting screws and attach the electrical connector.

• 9. Erase the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) with the scan tool using the“delete” or“erase” command. Road test your vehicle to see if the check engine light returns.

Check engine light


• Tip: If the check engine light returns, repeat the diagnostic process for additional DTCs or take your vehicle to a certified repair shop.

Direct OE replacement

Hope helped with this. Good luck (remember rated this help).

The throttle positioning sensor is actually mounted to the throttle body on the opposite side of the throttle cable. there are diagrams that show most sensor locations but not 100% of all sensors

the throttle position sensor is located on the side of the throttle body even with the throttle plate.
