Low TPS Readings (S5 TII)

I've checked the resistance readings for my tps using a multimeter and have ended up with the following readings:

Idle: 0.98
WOT: 3.55

The idle reading seems pretty close to spec but i'm worried that the low WOT reading means the tps is shot, any ideas?

Cheers

The idle reading of .98 is OK, but the WOT of 3.55 is low...should be over 4. If you fiddle with the settings, can you get the WOT any higher? If not, your TPS might be shot. Tough, because S5 TPS's aren't cheap.

You confuse me. Are you talking about the voltage output of the Narrow or the Full range part of the tps??????

Narrow range, pin 2F should read approx 1vdc at idle and when the key is to ON and engine OFF it should read at full throttle approx 5vdc

Full range, pin 2G should read approx 0.8vdc at idle and with the key to ON and engine off it should read at full throttle approx 4.3vdc.

Pretty sure he is referring to resistance but neglected to put "0.98k ohms" and "3.55k ohms).

That's correct, sorry forgot to put k ohms afterwards.
