2. Install the needle adapters to the multimeter leads;
then select DC Voltage on the multimeter.
3. Connect the red tester lead to the blue/brown wire
(B) and the black tester lead to the black/yellow wire
(A); then turn the ignition switch ON and observe the
meter. The meter should read 0.8-3.0 DC volts.

4. Tilt the sensor 60° or more to the left and right
observing the meter. The meter should read 4.0-8.0
DC volts after approximately one second in the
tilted position. If the meter readings are not as
specified, the tilt sensor is defective.

NOTE: Prior to testing the TPS, inspect the
three-wire plug connector on the main harness
and the three-pin plug on the TPS for contamina-
tion, broken pins, and/or corrosion.
2. Make sure the ignition switch is in the OFF posi-
tion; then select the DC Voltage position on the
meter.
3. Connect the black tester lead to terminal C and the
red tester lead to terminal B. Turn the ignition
switch to the ON position. The meter should read
approximately 5.0 DC volts.
