Thanks Archon, couldn't find my DMM last night, will have to look for it this weekend. Took off the TPS and everything looked peachy in there. At least I know it'* easy to change out if need be.

Might just pick up a TPS before I go home tonight since I'm 30 miles out of town.

Nice sharp image. You must have a good camera.

Check your wiring harness. Mice often chew through wires and cut them.

I saw last night when I was under the hood that the wiring harness leads to the firewall under a black cover. Does it connect to something at the firewall or does it go through and under the dash. Just wondering if I'm looking under the dash too or just under the hood.

Thanks,
Jason

Phooey Thanks for the correction Bill. I had copied that over from my other post and had to edit the caption for the pic. Just wasn't paying attention. Will go back and correct original post.

I would just look where there is evidence of mice. There is a big bulkhead connector that tightens with a bolt between the engine and the interior. Makes it nice when you have to pull the engine.

BTW, re TPS wiring, my '95 FSM shows a black sensor ground wire on terminal "C," a dark blue signal output wire on terminal "B," and a gray 5V reference wire on terminal "A." Just like Archon said. Must not have changed from '95 -'99.

Correct voltage and testing procedure should be in Techinfo.

Watch the mutimeter for dead spots as well.

Didn't have the Techinfo(?) but followed the instructions for testing from Mike1995 and found the reference voltage to be OK at 5.01 but when doing step 7 there was a readout of .01 and I didn't have a second person to slowly depress the accelerator (or the knowledge of how to from underhood) but would .01 at idle be too low?

Thanks for all the help so far.

yes, if i remeber right it should be something like .74-75 volts?

You can turn the throttle plate assembly with your hand from under the hood. Just grab onto the part where the cables attach and twist.
