Throttle Position Sensor for Daewoo Cielo Espero Lanos Nubira Lacetti Leganza Kalos

BRAND NEW *OEM Quality* throttle position sensor for Daewoo Cielo, Espero, Lanos, Nubira, Lacetti and Leganza.

These Korean-built Daewoo models were sold new across Australia through the 1990s and 2000s, and a drifting TPS on them typically turns up as a rough, low idle and stalling in traffic well before the check engine light comes on. This replacement is built to OE reference 94580175 for a direct plug-and-play fit. Dispatched same or next business day from Cranbourne VIC.

ABOUT THIS SENSOR

Across the Cielo, Espero, Lanos, Nubira, Leganza, Lacetti, Kalos and Tacuma range, this same TPS design reports throttle angle to the ECU to manage idle airflow and fuel trim - with these cars now often into six-figure kilometres, sensor drift from age and heat-cycling is one of the more common causes of an inconsistent idle.

Because many of these models are now older, budget-conscious daily drivers, a marginal TPS fault is often mistaken for a general "tired engine" - when in fact restoring an accurate throttle signal is enough to clear up the rough idle and hesitant response reported.

COMMON SYMPTOMS OF FAILURE

Fault codes P0120 / P0121 / P0122 / P0123 / P0124
Rough, low or hunting idle
Stalling at idle or when coming to a stop
Hesitation or flat spot on acceleration
Poor fuel economy
Hard starting, particularly in cold weather

What fault codes does a faulty TPS trigger?

A faulty throttle position sensor typically triggers codes P0120 to P0124. P0120 and P0121 indicate the TPS signal is out of range, P0122 and P0123 indicate the signal is too low or too high, and P0124 indicates an intermittent signal. On drive-by-wire vehicles additional codes related to the electronic throttle control system may also be present.

Can a faulty TPS cause my automatic transmission to shift incorrectly?

Yes. The ECU shares throttle position data with the transmission control module to determine when to upshift and downshift. A faulty TPS sending incorrect throttle angle data can cause erratic shift points, harsh gear changes, the transmission hunting between gears, or the vehicle remaining in a fixed gear. Replacing the TPS often resolves transmission behaviour issues that appear unrelated.

Is it safe to drive with a faulty throttle position sensor?

It depends on how severely the sensor has failed. A partially failed TPS may cause hesitation and poor throttle response but the vehicle remains driveable. A fully failed TPS on a drive-by-wire vehicle can trigger limp mode, restricting the engine to a fixed low throttle position to prevent runaway acceleration. In either case replace the sensor as soon as possible as the fault can worsen without warning.

What are the symptoms of a faulty throttle position sensor?

Symptoms include jerky or hesitant acceleration, rough idle, unexpected surging, poor throttle response, stalling, and fault codes P0120-P0124. Drive-by-wire vehicles may also enter a limp mode limiting engine power.

Can I clean a throttle position sensor instead of replacing it?

TPS sensors are sealed units and cannot be cleaned or adjusted reliably. If the sensor is producing erratic signals or fault codes, replacement is the correct solution. Attempting to clean or adjust it usually results in continued faults.

Do I need to calibrate the throttle position sensor after replacement?

Many vehicles require a TPS calibration or throttle body relearn procedure after replacement. This is usually done with an OBD2 scanner or by following a specific ignition on/off sequence. Check your vehicle's service manual or contact us for guidance.
