Throttle Position Sensor: Ensuring Smooth and Efficient Engine Performance

In the sophisticated world of automotive engineering, the throttle position sensor (TPS) is a key player in maintaining optimal engine performance and fuel efficiency. This sensor provides critical data to the vehicle’s engine control unit (ECU), enabling precise control over the air-fuel mixture and ensuring smooth acceleration. I

What is a Throttle Position Sensor?

A throttle position sensor is an electronic device that monitors the position of the throttle valve in an internal combustion engine. The throttle valve controls the amount of air entering the engine, which in turn affects the engine’s power and speed. The TPS sends data to the ECU about the throttle valve’s position, allowing the ECU to adjust the fuel injection and ignition timing for optimal performance.
