id hate to have to buy an el' cheapo one off ebay
not neccesarily you need to check the voltage between pin 11 and 17 on your ecu, use black probe on pin 11 and red on 17, on a 4x4 it should be less than 0.35 volts with throttle closed and 4.5-5 volts with throttle open reverse these figures for 2wd
the voltage should increase smmothly when pressing the accelerator if it jumps up in voltage non smoothly then the tps may be goosed
