does anyone know the voltage adjustment for the SR20 tps? I read the procedure for the KA24de, but I don't think it's the same. It won't go below 2 volts.

Step 1:

You will need to put your keys in and turn it to the on position (i.e. brake, engine lights on just before starting).

One click before starting the engine. But you don't need to start the engine for this proces.

Step 2:

Test you TPS before adjusting to ensure that it needs adjusting. Have your multi-meter and push the red connection pin into the plug coming from the TPS. You will need to push it into the middle pin in the engine side, then the black connection to the body so it's earthed or a ¼ panel bolt to ground. Doing this you will get a voltage reading that should be around 0.45 Volts.

Step 3:

If you need to adjust the TPS, get the 7mm socket and the ¼ socket wrench and reach in to the TPS from the engine side and loosen but DO NOT remove the bolts. Doing this will allow you to rotate the sensor. Loosen both bolts until only finger tight not too loose.

Step 4:

Rotate the TPS; till you get 0.45 Volts, it may take a few minutes as it is very sensitive. Tighten the bolts once it's set and double check the volts and away you go.

Basically, the same process as with a KA.

Thanks! Turns out I was testing the wrong wires, thats why I was getting so much voltage.
