ECU Setup

TPS setup – cable throttle

Calibrate a conventional throttle-position sensor and then recheck any idle setup affected by the throttle stop.

Procedure

  1. With ignition on and engine stopped, connect SXTune.
  2. Disable TPS auto-zero for the calibration procedure.
  3. With the throttle completely closed, record the raw TPS voltage and enter it as the minimum voltage.
  4. Open the throttle fully to its mechanical stop, record the raw voltage and enter it as the maximum voltage.
  5. Operate the throttle through its full range and verify that the scaled throttle position moves linearly from 0% to 100%.
  6. Check that the pedal/cable mechanical stops prevent the cable from being stretched at either end of travel.

If throttle-stop position is subsequently changed while setting idle, repeat the TPS calibration.

Validation

Disable any automatic TPS zero function during calibration. Capture the true mechanical closed and full-open positions and then verify the displayed throttle position moves linearly from 0% to 100%. Make sure the pedal/cable stops prevent cable stretch at both ends. If the mechanical throttle stop is later changed while setting idle, recalibrate the TPS.
