Starter problem?

Just me · 01-04-2002, 07:53 PM

Sorry for not responding sooner. I bought a TPS sensor which fixed my idling problem. I have one of those IA bypass thingies and my idle was still erratic here and there.WOW! When I installed the new TPS sensor, my battery voltage gauge went up and the car seems to have more power. I looked closely at the old sensor and noticed the + & - wires were exposed by the plastic casing. Also they were corroded. This was probrably a result from adjusting the sensor with a voltage meter. Anyway, I haven't driven the car yet to see if maybe my car had a lack of charge to the battery. I'm gonna look into all the options and I will post back. Thank you.
