Toyota Throttle Position Sensor, hmm research, research Options

[soulshadow]

So I was researching for Info on how to wire out my megasquirt for tomorrows trial on my 4age 16V and I couldn't come across any information on which wires to hook up to my TPS. So I did some research and no one has the answers. After a good 1 ''ol hr of testing and reading on my Multimeter. I finally go the answer. If you already know then skip back out to the main forum

Picture diagram provided if you want to switch to an EMS or MegaSquirt.



It seems that if you try to test out your TPS. Using a multiemeter the Ohms reading should say 5, .5 or whatever setting you have it at for resistance which indicates its still working.
1.) if you hook vcc to E2 on multimeter you should get a number that never changes when you flip your throttle
2.) Vcc and VTA always decreases from 5 and goes as close to ZERO when u move the throttle
3.) VTA and E2 Rises up from 0 to 5

If all these pass you have a good working TPS.
Why did I make this post, because I was too bored.
