TPS - help needed in SE London Having spoken with Nelly he believes the issue with my bike may be a dodgy TPS (Throttle Position Sensor), does anyone close to me have the necessary knowledge and equipment to test ?? I'm a technical buffoon but beer and donuts on offer to anyone that can assist .... Thanks for listening..... Dibs |
sorry mate, thats one thing I cant help out with:( thought about trying Mike Dawson?:confused: |
called him today, he is in Australia until 20th Jan .... |
Speak to Mitch at TecMoto and tell him I sent you. |

He has a collection service, or may even come to you with the equipment? Worth a phonecall at least... |
I had a similar problem with my 900ss a few months back - riding back from the Cadwell Track Attack was one of the worst rides of my life. Took it to Ducati ProTeam in Wimbledon and they sorted it out for a couple of hundred Pounds. Good value I thought. |
how long can you wait? I probably have to come down in a few weeks time so could maybe come in the van rather than car and drop it back at Nelly's to get it checked? |
the tps looks exactly the same as the weber attached to the throttle body and plenum of a ford 1985 rs turbo. I have the work shop manual knocking around somewhere which tells you how to identify a technical issue with the TPS. Basically (till i find the manual) you use a voltmeter to test resitance of the 3 contacts on the TPS whilst moving it slightly left or right (whilst still connected to the butterfly's) till you find the centre point. Alternativly they were only £15 from ford . God forbid how much a ducati webber supplied one is ...add a zero? |
Dibble, Where are you, mate? I can check it out ar tell you how to do it if you have a meter. Rgds, Rob |
