What is a throttle position sensor and why is it important?

A throttle position sensor (TPS) is a critical component in a vehicle's engine management system. It monitors the position of the throttle valve, which regulates air intake, and sends this information to the engine control unit (ECU).

If the TPS malfunctions, it can lead to poor acceleration, reduced fuel efficiency, or even engine stalling, making it vital for the vehicle's overall operation.

If you experience these symptoms, it’s crucial to check the TPS as an issue here can affect the vehicle’s fuel mixture, leading to poor performance and fuel inefficiency.

What is the installation process for the KARPAL TPS?
