that 2000s intro, daaamn. Great idea with a pin, gona try it myself right now. Thanks.
it's better to have the seperate batteries so you dont need to throw the light in the bin when the cheap builtin battery quits.
I have one from china and it uses 2x 18650 and you can also put 4x double A batteries in it and charge the 18650 in the lamp and use it as a powerbank like the one in the video.. just pop in fresh set of batts and youre charging youre phone again. mine have been working hard for the past 5 years or so and still going strong! cold winters here in Finland eat batts like a recycling center so its nice to have spares.
Rest of the video was usefull to me so thanks :D
Thanks for posting man. I just followed your 7 minute video in about 10 minutes and got rid of most of my rough acceleration stumble. I monkeyed with it before, so it was my fault... but you helped me fix that mistake 🙌 now I'm resetting the ECU
Just doing it myself. Is reseting the ecu necessary after this?
@@maxportillo4262 resetting the ECU is easy. Just unplug the battery while you do everything. It takes 10 minutes at idle chilling in the car. It's needed because the computer keeps running at the old settings, not what it should now, so if you fixed anything the computer won't adjust for it
@@maxportillo4262 by the way, I never fully removed the stumble in my manual transmission vehicle and ended up selling it for a truck as it was.
Don't do aftermarket spark plug wires
@@anothersomebody8195 So after I reset the TPS. I disconnect the battery for 10 mins, then let it idle for 10 mins?
@@eugenegreenin1903I disconnect for about 30 minutes with the key in the on position. Clean the battery posts if needed. Remove key and reconnect battery.
Wait for car to be totally cold... Then...
Start car and let idle for about 7-10 minutes (it goes through the warming cycle and hunts for the various idle levels at different temperatures), then turn on the AC and continue to idle for another 5 minutes (this let's it idle with a little bit of a load).
Freaking life saver over here guys! 🙌
On one hand, we appreciate the effort and information. On the other, there's no reason at all why this has to be presented as a seven-minute video instead of just saying "adjust the TPS output for .5V at idle". See how easy that was? And I'm going to add another interesting fact: The ECU supplies +5V to the TPS when the ignition switch is on. The engine does NOT have to be running. Also, be aware that if you pull the pierce-the-insulation-with-a-pin trick, over time moisture will get into that hole and attack the wire. Odds are it won't become a problem during the car's lifetime, but I've seen a small nick in the insulation of a ground wire result in opening up the conductor completely and create absolute chaos in the vehicle.
I agree , this looked like a mumble bumble fuck video . typical you tube 19 minutes of bullshit followed by 5 seconds of good info . Didn't seem like he was very profesional at all . youd have to PAY ME to let him work on my car
just add some sillicone in that hole, or glue.
earlier i changes my fuel injectors, got from US ebay, new that shoud work bether than new ones. But still engine stumbled every time i press the gas pedal fast. so i put back orginal used orginale throttle sensor, and calibrated it to 0.5 volt ( when engine is not on ) me, my wife. and a girl who used my car to pratice drive, notice it was stumbeling 90% less. and fuel consumsion was 50% bether, i also changed Idle Air Control Valve, becouse it was seaced, and engine was all over the plase when not hitting the pedal. But after 24 years, it call it the night, it has to retire somtimes. In short, if u have a 24 year old subaru, just change most sensors, air filter, gas filter, injectors, plugs, coil, and plug wires. they all get old and work bad. Fuel pump in tank i changed 4 yers ago, just to be shure.
Ha, think most subbi owners are interested in the light.
adjusted my throttle pos sensor to .5 volt, now disconect battery for 10 min. Hope it helps. becouse when i press gas pedal fast down, engine stumbeling, so i had to press gas pedal realy slow down when im driving. subaru outback 1998 mod, 2.5L ej25d engine. changed used throttle sensor. after that, engine stambles 90% less. ( used one ) bouth a new on ebay, new from delaer bodø norway cost 10 000 kr. Fucking mafia
Hi Mark..... I watch your videos related to Subaru and love the way you explain issues and suggest solutions. Its matter of time that i am struggling with an issue with my Subau Forester, 2005, 2.0X, Non-turbo. I recently cleaned my throttle body, PCV valve, TPM sensor, MAP sensor, EGR valve and IAC valve. After refitting them in car, my Suby behaving awkward way. Idle RPM are gone high and there is a fluctuation. Same time i am getting some oil burning / overheating smell with some smoke coming up from somewhere down near catalytic converter/ drive shaft boot. Please give some clue on these two issues. Thanks a ton bro for help.....:-))
It's hard to pin it down to one thing as so many things we're removed and put back on. The high idle could be related to the throttle body, idle module, and even an air seal leak. Make sure all gaskets were put back where they belong and none are cracked or torn. Make sure you reconnect every plug securely. Is it showing a Check Engine light? The smoke could be from head gaskets that are leaking oil and you are just now noticing this with the car sitting still.
@@contact4mwy7 i checked all hoses and sensor fitting again. I found my mistake in fixing TP sensor with its tang on wrong side of throttle shaft pin....:-)) i refixed it and adjusted in a position so that signal wire giving a reading of 0.45-0.55 volts. My issues are solved and RPM are stable at 650. There was a check engine light there,which is automatically gone after I drove car a bit.I wil drive a bit more and see if burning smell is gone....Thank you for your suggestions. Appreciate it 🙂
Great video huuuuugeee help my friend..thank you😉
How were you adjusting your throttle position sensor?
I loosened the screws and adjusted using a voltmeter as in the video. I was rotating the throttle position sensor until I got the reading I was looking for. Once I got the correct setting I tightened the screws.
Mark Young - Outside The Box another question is that on my wire harness connecting to the tps the middle wire is red. Should I still connect into the white wire? I assume that’s the signal wire
What year is your car?

I don't have an answer as to why your wires would be a different color, so, try probing the middle wire first and if you are not seeing digits show in your multimeter that are similar to those in my video, try the white wire. On your multimeter, black to ground, and red to the probe wire. Millivolts setting. Will that help?
I did the same thing without cranking the engine. And nothing popped up on the multimeter should I stab the wire deeper?
If you have the right wire and you're not getting a reading, that could be the reason. Make sure you have a good ground connection too.
The sensor on my wifes car doesn't have screw holes that allow for adjustment. Just put a new sensor on it the only way it can go on, and still got the check engine light. Useless electrical crap.
My check engine light is on for tps, when the cars cold it starts up and idles high but once it’s warm it idles normal..
Is the Check Engine light on because the tps is faulty?
@@contact4mwy7 it says throttle position sensor/switch “”A”” circuit low input
So does that mean it’s faulty or just not adjusted correctly
I'm not familiar with that code, but saying it has a low input sounds like it is either out of range and needs to be adjusted or it is faulty and needs to be replaced. Try googling it's symptoms and code and look for a forum that discusses it?
Do you know why in my meter shows 5.00 volts?
I do not, can your meter register a half volt DC? Are you sure you are measuring the correct wire? What year is your vehicle?
@@contact4mwy7 95 subaru svx
It may be your meter or that the system is different in the '95 from the 2000 system?
The TPS is supplied with 5V from the ECU, so there are a couple of reasons you could be getting a 5V reading. First, you could be probing the +5 wire instead of the TPS output. Second, if you have a bad ground on the TPS, the output will read 5V.
I would have gotten more out of your video if you were showing what you were doing at the TPS rather than watching the meter
If I remember correctly I had loosened the screws that lock it into position and was twisting it back and forth to arrive at the measurement I was looking for. How's that?
