Re: tps switch install

i actually just did this yesterday, on my 97 3.8 camaro. its the wire located on the sensor directly opposite of the throttle on the pass. side. it is the middle wire which on my car is blue. the problem i found with it and i dont know if it was just my car or not. is.. what i assume are the "secondaries", wernt opening all the way to activate it the wot, so make sure its opening all the way, i must have spent an hour trying to figure out why that wire wasnt working.

btw, when i researched this everyone said that the wire was green , so i think that it may be different on newer models, however there are only three wires. so what i did was i took a tester light and poked each one and opened the throttle all the way untill i found the right one. hope that was helpful!

the only thing I can think of is that the newer cars use a throttle by wire system, so the sensor harnesses may be different.

Re: tps switch install

what exactly does the tsp switch do?

Re: tps switch install

its called TPS or Throttle Position Sensor switch, sometimes its called a WOT switch or "Wide open Throttle Switch" It triggers the nitrous when the car is floored.
