PACKAGE INCLUDES:
1 X OEM Quality THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR (3-PIN PLUG).Anticlockwise rotation
A Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) is located on the throttle body to monitor an engine's air intake. It detects the position of the throttle body butterfly, plate, or spindle and sends it to the ECU. The ECU utilizes this input to decide the fuel requirement and spark timing to ensure safe and smooth engine performance.
COMMON QUESTIONS
What are the signs of a bad Throttle Position Sensor on my Santa Fe?
Common symptoms include a sudden loss of engine power rough idling harsh transmission shifting or the engine stalling when you come to a complete stop.

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.
