How do you calibrate a new throttle position sensor?
To recalibrate the ECM and accelerator pedal, the ignition switch must be in the ON position and then the accelerator pedal must be slowly and fully depressed from idle to full throttle. Repeat the procedure three times.
What happens if you don’t calibrate TPS?
If the TPS fails to send the proper data back to the computer, the correct fuel calculations can’t be made. With some engines, other sensors are able to compensate and provide a guess at how much fuel is needed, but this usually causes the engine to accelerate poorly or sporadically.
How do I relearn my TPS?
TPS Relearn Process
- Turn the KOEO, while viewing your scanner, adjust your throttle body set screw until your throttle position is 2%
- Turn your key to the OFF position, disconnect your scanner.
- Head out under the hood and unplug your (TPS) and Idle Air Control Valve (IAC)
How do you calibrate?
On Windows, open the Control Panel and search for “calibrate.” Under Display, click on “Calibrate display color.” A window will open with the Display Color Calibration tool. It steps you through the following basic image settings: gamma, brightness and contrast, and color balance.
How do I relearn idle speed?
Follow these steps to complete an Idle Relearn:
- With vehicle at a complete stop, set the parking brake.
- Put gear shifter in “P” (Park), turn off all accessories.
- Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature.
- Allow engine to idle for at least one minute.
Why is it important to calibrate a TPS unit?
This short video covers the instillation and calibration of a new TPS unit. The calibration is critical to the fitment and ensures that the car’s ECU (computer) receives the correct voltage signal relative to throttle position as if this is incorrect then it can affect the performance & fuel economy of the engine.

When to do accelerator pedal position sensor calibration?
This step must be done (one time) >to ensure accelerator pedal position sensor calibration has been learned by ECM. If not done, possible DTC ’s may be set.
How to reset / calibrate your apps sensor-electrical?
If the calibration is not done error codes and other issues must occur. 1. Disconnect the batteries and leave disconnected for at least 30 minutes. Now reconnect the batteries. 2. Turn key to ON position. (Do not Start) 3. Without starting engine, slowly press throttle pedal to floor and then slowly release.
