The TPS, located on the throttle body, is an electric resistor which is activated by the movement of the throttle shaft. The sensor produces a voltage which increases or decreases according to the throttle valve opening. The voltage signal is transmitted to the logic module or SMEC where it is used with data from other sensors to adjust the air/fuel mixture accordingly.
