WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Suzuki XL-7. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Disconnect negative cable (-) at battery and coupler from TP sensor (4).
- Using ohmmeter, check resistance between terminals under each condition.
If check result is not satisfactory, replace TP sensor.
TP sensor specifications
Between "1" and "3" terminals: 4.0 - 6.0 kΩ
Between "2" and "3" terminals: 0.02 - 6.0 kΩ (Varying linearly according to throttle valve opening)
- Connect TP sensor coupler securely.
