TPS needs to be replaced?
I was checking my NA S4's TPS a couple of minutes ago using the following method:
http://fc3spro.com/TECH/HOWTO/TPS/tps.html
-- I adjusted the TPS to ~1k ohm at rest.
I then proceeded to manipulate the throttle to WOT, and noticed that at a certain point, about 80% open, my DMM went to infinity for a second... and when finally at WOT, it topped at 4.4k ohm.
According to that writeup, things going out-of-range during the transition means that the TPS is bad or about to die... right?
So... what should I do? Get a new one?
Help!

Also, is it pretty consistant when you are measuring this blip on the DMM, meaning does it happen everytime you measure it on the way to WOT.

And regarding the infinity blip, yes, happens every time.
