TPS ADC count is reversed for closed and open throttle.

Post by FunBus »

The TPS i use has the ADC reversed. Meaning its a high count at closed throttle, and very low at open throttle. How can I get TunerStudio to recognize this, and use it appropriately? Or can I modify the TPS to give the usual ADC counts? Any help would be awesome.

This will probably be my first of many questions...


FYI, the car is a ae86 w/ 4age using hayabusa throttlebodies, and COP from late model corollas.

Is this a standard three wire sensor? I'd think you could just reverse the ground and 5vdc wire.

Ya, you would totally think that would work, but it reads the same either way...
