Throttle position sensor issue

[dazzybabie]

Hi All,



Reading previous posts, it seems I have a defunctive throttle position sensor.

Basically, has anyone any experience of replacing it themselves, using tuneECU?



Has there been a thread about this, or perhaps a sticky somewhere that I have missed.

I have looked through the service manual, so have an idea about all the voltages etc, but just wondered if it is possible to do.



I really would appreciate any info/experience on this, part numbers etc.



If it helps anyone im in the UK.



Many Thanks in advance...

the following thread is also the first sticky in the tune-boy section..

. The trick to avoid all of this is the use a Torx socket and a small spanner (wench) to turn the socket using the hexagonal section of the tool. You hold the Torx socket into the bolt with a finger and use the spanner to turn it.......
.

Or, buy a Torx set with right angle handle ( like regular Allen keys)
