    In this video I am going to be testing the throttle position sensor while still installed in the vehicle. I will also be removing the throttle body and replacing the sensor and then demonstrating how to reinstall everything.
    There are many ways to "skin the cat" and these are the methods that I use. Any criticisms or alternate methods posted in the comments are welcome, just keep it civil.

    Great video on the throttle body and TPS service. Honda will never sell the TPS alone. You will have to buy the whole entire throttle body!

      Thank you! Honda considers the TPS "non-servicable" for some reason.

    • @ktecgarage
      @ktecgarage  Před 2 lety +1

      To be honest, you probably won't notice a difference without the calibration so long as it's close. You can probably find multimeters for less than $20 at Harbor Freight or Walmart, but if it runs and drives fine, you will be OK.

  • @Teknakill
    @Teknakill Před rokem

    As if alittle colouring of dirt in the throttle body is really going to effect the sensors that much, are they really that sensitive to make the idle so rough or stall the engine?

    • @ktecgarage
      @ktecgarage  Před rokem +1

      A dirty throttle body is very noticible with a manual transmission. When the clutch is engaged, the engine falls to idle quickly and the throttle body will catch it at idle and stop there. When it is dirty, it is slower to catch the RPM and causes stalls. The blade is barely cracked open at idle and any dirt interferes. So yes, it is that sensitive.

      @alfredobrown Do the rear brake lights work when you press the brake pedal? Also, check the back-up/reverse light fuse. On the under hood fusebox, check the fuse that is labeled "Stop" on top of the box.

    • @ktecgarage

      Also, there is a slot above the PRNDL on the gear selector. Remove the plastic cover and insert a key into the slot and it will release the shifter until you get it figured out.

    Sorry...At 16:11 you tried to get the TPS to have 5.0V when the throttle is fully open. How did you get to near 5V without changing the calibration for the 0.5V when the throttle is not fully open? It seems that one would need to hold the throttle to fully opened position and adjust the TPS at the same time? Would that mess up the 0.5V calibration when the throttle is not fully open? Thanks.

    • @ktecgarage
      @ktecgarage  Před 5 měsíci

      It's seems to me that it's most important to get the reading right at wide open throttle. I don't know that you could get an aftermarket TPS to be perfectly 0 and 5v.

      Probably not too noticeable if you just bolt it on out of the box. I would guess worse gas mileage and fuel trims slightly off.

      That engine has a fast idle thermal valve and I'd bet that is your issue. The set up on the engine in this video is not the same. Search CZcams for B15 fast idle thermal valve problem. Good luck!

      Also make sure your coolant level is correct. Those engines are very sensitive to low coolant levels causing idle issues.
