Thro Showing 0.00v

[platinum]

Hey,

Was looking at my powerFC tonight, and in particular the "sensor test" screen - everything else is going well, but the "THRO" sensor (assume throttle body sensor) is showing 0.00 volts and has a black background, rather than all the rest which are just on the usual light background.

Does this indicate a fault? (I'm guessing it does). Car is running perfectly normally - apart from occasionally it has an idle hunting issue which makes me suspect the TPS, I'm yet to see if the voltage changes at all when it 'hunts' on idle.

comments? cheers

ok rev your engine and you will see it increase....

Nah - that's the thing, it never changes, no matter what, although I havn't tried a WOT run at all.

afaik it should show *some* voltage even at idle.

[sinistaGTR]

hmm you got an avcr at all

[platinum]

nah - pretty much a stock setup apart from the pfc. :

Its obviously not connected....

Off the throttle the factory manual states it should read 0.46v.

There's two plugs, one for idle, one for full throttle.

thanks cubes - yeah it's possible it's buggered as it's just one from a wreckers, but shouldn't there be more noticible side-effects of not having it working at all?

it should be near 0.33v at idle. im suprised the car is working with the sensor dead. it should be fixed

[Cubes]

Thats from the R33 manual paul?

[paulr33]

nah looking at my datalogs i see common near 0.33 0.35v at idle

[paulr33]

err im a spastic, yeah 0.44 is spot on. sorry

[Cubes]

lol...

Yer mines 0.44 as well.. so damn hard to get it spot on.
