TPS trouble

Post by oysteinbno »

Hi, I need some help.
I have a V3 board with MSII Daughtercard mounted.
Suddenly my TPS does not work anymore. It reads out 117% in Megatune. When I try to calibrate it, and try to Get Current value it reads out 1024 when the throttle is off.
I have meassured the TPS with a multimeter, and it works just fine.
I have also tried to reprogram the ECU without any luck.
Can anyone give me some tips on whats wrong???

What results does it get on the Stimulator?

When I hook the stimulator on to the ECU, it resets the ECU all the time...

That's even stranger. What are you powering the Stim with?

I use a 9v battery.
But I hooked the ECU into the car again, and now it works just fine... Strange......
