Functions of the throttle position sensor (TPS) by: Ryan Gick For my first article I am going to discuss the functions of the throttle position sensor (TPS, or TP sensor) as well as how to perform adjustments and troubleshoot this device. This discussion encompasses the 2.5 4-cylinder and 2.8 V6, as well as most other GM engines. The job of the TPS is to tell the computer the position of the throttle.
