he Throttle Position Sensor: Key to Smooth and Efficient Engine Performance

In the realm of modern automotive technology, the throttle position sensor (TPS) stands out as a crucial component that ensures your vehicle’s engine runs smoothly and efficiently. This small yet vital device provides essential data to the engine control unit (ECU), helping to manage the air-fuel mixture, ignition timing, and overall engine performance.

What is a Throttle Position Sensor?

A throttle position sensor is an electronic device that monitors the position of the throttle valve in the engine. The throttle valve controls the amount of air entering the engine, which in turn influences the air-fuel mixture and the engine’s power output. The TPS sends real-time data to the ECU about the throttle valve’s position, enabling precise control over the engine’s operation.
