I'm pretty sure he knows how to work his scanner-no sarcasm intended-that's why I posted a pic of the screen. He said the same thing. He's never seen this before. He wiggled the pigtail around and the idle changed and it was reading voltage for a second. It now drives like a stock 4.8, no guts. Even the idle tone sounds different. Does anyone have a schematic /pinouts of the tps plug? I don't have a scanner but if like to see if my simple test lead detects voltage. I'm really fed up with this! Thx for any help.
It's an 03, and it is dbw. I'm obviously over my head with this. I think I have a cheapy volts meter from hf. I wired in the pigtail because I kept getting the reduced engine power and it was fine until I got the trans done. Trans guy had to disconnect the battery, and he thinks it might have something to do with it. I'm lost! The butterfly opens all the way when pressing the pedal.So if i understand you correctly, you already installed a replacement pigtail. Alum or copper, doesnt really matter. I suspect that your break is further away from you pigtail that you installed. You may just need to find the offending wire and replace a section or splice the break. Your 2002 have DBW?
Your test light is made for 12v. The tps voltage will be 5v or less. Your test light may not even light up even if 5v is there or will be very dim.
