Tps

Thanks

I also just found this thread...

I was searching for TPS as opposed to TuneECU. This looks like it will help a lot.

Thanks again
 
Dielectric grease on the plug fixed my tps and it has not given me any issues for the 2100 miles since. I am convinced many tps's have been replaced unnecessarily. A tube of dielectric grease can be had for 3-4 dollars and should be included in every motorcycle tool kit, especially for the all-weather riders amongst us.
 
Huh, who'd o' thought. Guess what I'll be doing tonight and it'll be free since I already has some.
Of course I'll be bent if it works as I just ordered a TPS and a diagnostic cable

Now I'm confused as the BikeBandit parts list shows it as the primary as best I can tell (#2) and it shows #4 as the secondary. Sorry to be a pain but, as you can imagine, I want to makes sure I get this right.

So I'm looking at the bike tonight and I'm even more confused. The TPS at the front of the bike goes to a connector under the tank that is really easy to get to. The TPS towards the back of the bike disappears under the tank (longer cable) but I can't find the other end.
It seems to me that the back of the bike is the Right hand side as I look at the side, making the part in the drawing correct. Don't mean to question the answer but you can see my confusion. Which TPS is the primary? The one closest to the front of the bike of the one closest to the back. If it is the latter, how do I find the connector?
 

The primary tps is towards the back of the bike. closest to the seat. It is a lot easier to find the connector by raising the tank.

Looking at the Bike Bandit drawing, it appears that the perspective is from the engine side of the throttle bodies. Just opposite of what you see when working on the bike.

The parts list on Bike Bandit is correct, however, the drawing should have the parts 2 & 4 reversed.
 
Well I have the tank lifted (Oh so much fun now that I have the Rivco risers) and I cannot for the life of me figure how to get to the primary TPS connector. It's as much as I can do to see it buried under the air intake. Keep in mind I have the stock air box and intake.
I took some pictures to try to illustrate what I'm seeing. What worries me is I will need to get to the connection if I end up swapping out the TPS. as you can see, the Bear Claw is off and the tank lifted.



The hose and brown wire are for my Stebel horn at the front of the bike. Of course the connector I don't need to get to is nice and easy to reach.
Hopefully you can see there is no way to get to the connector, unless I'm really missing something.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Wow, nobody? Ya gotta help before I pull out any more hair My son is already telling me I have none left.
 
Sorry. Traveling to the RAA event tonight. The connector should not be that far under the frame. I believe that I was able to pull it out to where you could see it.
 
Certainly no apology required. Unfortunately, in my case, I don't see how I can get to it without removing the air intake. Anyone else run into this or am I being stupid and missing something?
