#21227, "Throttle Positioning Sensor (Need some info)"


          

Ok guys. After taking the car to Mitsubishi their technician said it was either the wiring harness, Computer, Or Throttle Positioning sensor. Well now i purchased another computer. The good news is the computer is fine. No PCM failure error codes. The Harness checked out fine. No shorts, all wires have continuity. My Question is this. Does the throttle poisitioning sensor have anything to do with spark? Becasue now the only error code i receive is a code 24 which is TPS voltage too high or too low or throttle position senser voltage does not agree with the MAP.
So to sum it all up this is possibly the last part to replace concerning spark.
And can someone please tell me if the TPS has anything to do with the car not having spark.

All the TPS does is read throttle position. It has nothing to do with the car not having spark. If the car aint gettin spark do the usuall inspection, plug, plug wires, then the coil pack.
