well, i thought my throttle positioning sensor was my problem, so i purchased a brand new one.

what was happening, was the tps was showing 4.79 volts.

i tested all 3 wires
grey wire 4.79ish volts
grey/white wire 4.79 volts also
brown wire 5 volts.

what could the problem be? i replaced the sensor and ive still got the same readings. i can not think of anything else that could be the problem. if someone else could make a suggestion, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Kris
