This is the Throttle Positioning Switch for a TB45 with an Auto. Located on the side of the throttle body on the firewall side and monitors where the throttle is at. It precisely monitors the angle of the throttle butterfly valve, sending this vital information to the Engine Control Unit (ECU). This data is essential for the ECU to correctly manage fuel injection, ignition timing, and automatic transmission shift points. Over time, the internal electronic components can wear out, leading to incorrect signals being sent to the ECU.
Failure to replace a faulty throttle position switch can lead to a range of drivability issues. You may experience a check engine light, poor or hesitant acceleration, erratic idling, and incorrect or harsh gear changes in your automatic transmission. In some cases, a complete failure can cause the vehicle to enter a "limp home" mode with severely reduced power, leaving you stranded.
