TPS specification
Posted: Wed Jul 28, 2010 11:19 am
Hi everyone.
I've been in and out of here for a few years, having previously built and used a Megasquirt, but have not registered before.
I have just ordered a MJLJ for my oval race car project, a 2 litre Zetec engined Toyota Starlet with Weber DCOEs fitted.
I have tried searching, but have been unable to find the info I need.........
I have access to fairly robust 4 wire TPSs, as used on fork lift trucks. Diagram below;
Because of safety legislation these pots have dual tracks, but thats not an issue, I'll just use 1 track!
My question concerns what MJLJ requires electrically for a tps.
With the pot not connected if I measure between ground (pin 1) and Vref (pin 4) the resistance is 2k ohm.
If I measure between ground and O/P (pin 3) the restance range is between 1k75 and 3k75 ohm.
Before I start making a bracket to fit these type of pot to my Webers would someone be able to confim they will be ok?
Many thanks.
