Removal Procedure
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Remove the engine cover. Refer to Engine Cover Replacement in Interior Trim.
- Remove the TP sensor harness connector.
- Remove the TP sensor attaching fasteners.
- Remove the TP sensor from the throttle body assembly.
Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or its components.
Notice: The TP sensor is an electrical component. Do not soak the TP sensor in any liquid cleaner or solvent as damage may result.
Installation Procedure
- With the throttle valve closed, install the TP sensor on the throttle shaft.
- Install the TP sensor attaching fasteners.
- Install the TP sensor harness connector.
- Install the engine cover. Refer to Engine Cover Replacement in Interior Trim.
- Connect the negative battery cable.
Rotate the TP sensor counterclockwise in order to align the mounting holes.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Tighten
Tighten the fasteners to 2.0 N·m (18.0 lb in).
