The TPS works by sending a signal to the engine control module (ECM) that indicates the position of the throttle valve. This information is used by the ECM to control the amount of fuel that is injected into the engine.
If the TPS is faulty, it can cause a number of problems, including:
* Engine stalling
* Idle problems
* Poor fuel economy
* Decreased performance
If you are experiencing any of these problems, it is important to have the TPS checked. A faulty TPS can be easily replaced, and it is a relatively inexpensive repair.
