Just to follow up, I sent my orginal TPS with the new board to Dave Sprinkle. He checked it out and found that corrosion on the two upright post on the arm itself was prohibiting the TPS from making a good connection. He sanded it and mailed it back to me, I swapped it back out with the one that was working fine and now BOTH are working fine.
THANK YOU DAVE !!! GREAT PRODUCT !! and he took care of my problem in a timely way, even called me to follow up today (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

I contacted jsayre regarding the behavior of his TPS with my replacement board. He sent me the TPS and I debugged its problem. The issue was corrosion on the post in the shaft of the sensor, which prevented a good connection with the leaf-contact and would never allow the sensor to detect the idle position. I dragged some 2000 grit sandpaper between the contacts. According the jsayre, this fixed the problem. I've attached a picture of the post and the leaf-contact.
