Throttle position sensor replacement

The throttle sensor informs the engine computer about its opening, closing and opening angle. The purpose of the signal is to determine the amount of fuel directed to the cylinders. Its malfunction affects the engine operation, causing a power decrease, choking and switching off. If you ignore its failure, you risk an unpredictable response of the accelerator pedal and, consequently, even an accident.
