    Another TPS vs ETC vs actual question?

    Well, I am trying to figure out if my throttle blade is opening all the way at WOT. Reason is this. My tuner thinks that the BBK is not opening all the way at WOT but the stock TB is. This is with the exact motor driver and sensor being switched from one TB to the next.

    Is there a way of logging the voltage changes from the TPS and is this what we see in the TPS PID. I know there is redundency in these sensors but if the command position was different by say 10% would you throw a code because the sensor itself is still fx right.

    I dont feel like trying to look in the TB while hitting WOT( no second person ).

    Thanks.

    I would just do a little visual exam. Have one person visually check throttle blade being 90 Degrees, the other presses the loud pedal. All can be done with the engine off (best ) in about 10 minutes.

    If it works with the engine off, it will be fine with it on.
