Twin TPS sensors? (and assoc. problems)

Somy newly swapped JDM S5 TII motor has been acting a little quirky.. (hesitation)

so i went to adjust the TPS expecting to find a single TPS with 3 wires in it like i have on my S4 TII

instead..

i find TWO TPS's... both going into 1 6 pin plug...

forgive my ignorance.. as i'm not so up to snuff on S5's..

but are they supposed to have 2 TPS's?


I checked the Resistance of the Green and black wires.. as per the instructions...

it was around 500...i kept turning counter clock wise to bring it back to 1k... (took alot of turns)...

now the hesitaiton is gone... but the car can't idle anymore...it keeps dying

I raised the idle... and the damn thing idles like a Bridge port now.. BRAP BRAP BRAP.. or it jumps up and stays idling at 1,800rpm..



am I doing something wrong? do I have to check the resistance differently on a Twin TPS system?


am i even SUPPOSED to have 2 TPS's?

if so.. Why?

*note how the two TPS's converge into one..
