How is a throttle position sensor replaced?

The battery must be disconnected, and other parts, such as an engine cover or strut brace, may need to be removed. The throttle position sensor is located opposite the spring for the throttle cable, and can be removed with a connector and a couple of screws. The sensor can be pulled out and tested, and the new sensor installed in its place.

RepairPal recommendations for throttle position sensor issues

We recommend using high-quality, OEM replacement sensors. The throttle position sensor signal is critical to keeping the vehicle running smoothly. Using an inferior sensor may result in incorrect readings.

Can I replace the throttle position sensor myself?

Replacing a throttle position sensor is easy, and only requires a screwdriver on most vehicles. The tough part of the job is properly diagnosing the sensor. It's often misdiagnosed on a hunch. If you're not sure how to properly diagnose the sensor, you may save time and money by taking the vehicle to a certified mechanic.
