So...quick question...what are the volts suposed to be that are going to the TPS?

I have disonected the plug and have tested it to find the supply is 2.59v...i thought it should be 5v..

why ive tested it is that when i set the TPS to .04v my VCT is on...and thats on idle. it only kicks off if i adjust it back to 0.2.

any ideas??

R33 gtst -95 STD ECU Chipped

cheers,

Scotty

When you check the TPS voltage you must have the plug connected to the TPS and the ignition ON (engine off). It should read 0.5v with the throttle closed and 4.5-5v with it fully open. Another thing to consider is there is a throttle switch built in which only senses if the throttle is open or closed. You need to adjust the TPS voltage as close to 0.5v closed but also make sure the throttle switch is reading closed. Kind of need to find a happy medium.

There are 2 sets of wires coming out of the TPS. One set has two wires, it is the throttle switch, you check this with an ohm meter. From memory it should read 0 ohms resistance when its closed and infinity when its anywhere else. The other set has 3 wires, they are for the TPS. 2 of the wires will give you your voltage.

Good luck,

Deren

Hi Deren

With the TPS pluged in and with it adjusted to 0.4 my VCT is on (Nissan Data Scan), it only clicks off if i adjust it back to 0.2. im sure VCT should not be on at this point.

My TPS only has one set of wires connected..3 wires to be exact. and i checked the two in there and thats where im getting the voltage reading from.

there are 2 plugs but yer only one has wires in it. (rb25det) s2 motor

Does the TPS have 3wires that consist of 1 x positive, 1 x negitive and 1 x signal to the ECU?

Something is going wrong for it to kick the vct on at idle.

Thanks,

Sc

Hey again, i was hoping it would be the same as the 32 TPS. You will need to get the factory specs for the 33 as they might be different to mine. Sorry i can't help more...

Thanks for your help deren,

but after geting my hands on a service manual and running more tests, ive found that to the TPS i have 10.2v on (yellow wire *power) 3.2v was 2.59v on (red wire *signal) and 0v - normal on (blue/black *earth).

Im going to test the loom tomorrow pin 38 on the ecu plug to see if the wire is faulty. Im reading in the manual that the voltage supply should be 5v. but i seem to be getting 10.2v.

So after all that im assuimng that the facotry specs for r33 are supply to tps 5v,tps on idel 0.4v, WOT 4-5v.

Will try more again tomorrow.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
