While physical dimensions and appearance remain similar in part applications and the replacement procedure does not differ between sensor types, circuit testing may require a different diagnostic method. Sensor testing with an ohm meter has not been the most effective way to test this sensor, monitoring voltage on the return circuit has always been the most effective test method and is the required test method on this improved circuit type.
Be sure to read and follow the replacement procedure from a repair resource as some vehicle applications may require a system calibration whenever the throttle position sensor is replaced.
