1. It should be of a three wire variety as in most OEM cases and also if supplied by us First we must determine what the connections are on your TPS As a guide generally the middle connection is the TPS signal but follow this simple guide below to ensure you make the right connections 1 Set your multi meter to measure resistance in the order of 1 or 2 Mega Ohms 2 Connect it to two of the connections on the TPS sensor 3 Sweep the throttle slowly from CLOSED to OPEN whilst watching the resistance reading If the reading on the multi meter stays the same then you have found the GROUND and TPS VOLTAGE REFERENCE wires although we do not yet know which is which If the reading starts HIGH and then REDUCES then you are connected with the TPS SIGNAL wire and TPS VOLTAGE REFERNECE wires although we do not yet know which is which If the reading starts LOW and INCREASES then you are connected with the TPS SIGNAL and the GROUND connection although we do not yet know which is which By changing the pins that you are taking the readings from and going back to step three you will eventually be able to mark each wire with GROUND TPS SIGNAL and TPS VOLTAGE REFERENCE Once you have done this follow the wiring diagram below for connection to the NODIZ Pro M Tech NODIZ Pro For further support please visit us online at www NODIZ co uk OPTIONAL SYSTEMS WIRING The NODIZ Pro features several optional systems which can be u2. NODIZ co uk THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR TPS CALIBRATION When ordering if specified the NODIZ Pro offers the ability to use a Throttle Position Sensor or TPS as a means of determining load This is more common for use on Individual Throttle Body Twin Carbs or Motorbike Carbs fuelled engines as reading a MAP sensor value from these types of engines requires extra piping and take offs needing to be fitted i ENTERING TPS CALIBRATION MODE To enter Throttle Position Sensor calibration mode with the ignition switched off hold down BUTTON B the innermost button and turn the ignition on whilst keeping this button depressed The NODIZ will flash the BLUE and ORANGE LEDs together to show to that TPS calibration has been entered You are are now in TPS calibration mode The engine will not run in this mode i CALIBRATING THE TPS Whilst in TPS Calibration Mode simply sweep the throttle from open to closed several times The NODIZ Pro will constantly update its memory such that the upper and lower results are stored and also you will notice that the LED flashes at different rates to indicate throttle position You can now check that the throttle wiring and TPS sensors are working correctly by slowly opening and closing the throttle and noticing that the LEDs flash faster with higher throttle openings and more slowly as you near closed throttle If this is not the case refer to the relevant trouble shooting section If you make a mist
