I had this in my amazon cart for months just went to order it and noticed it is unavailable. My TPS is showing signs of failure. I wrote Wells to inquire if they can run another batch and linked them to this thread. we'll see if anything comes of it. What are the chances of us rebuilding a TPS? Can we gut it and replace components?

there are exceptions, but parts professionals do not use o, q, s and i in part numbers as they are too easy to confuse with letters. Mazda even shies away from B.

Makes sense, thanks for the correction. I should have tried the substitution myself.
Well very pricey indeed, but at least a solution. Hopefully the cost comes down to closer to what the old sensor was priced at.

Interesting!
I'm googling around a little with that part number. Found this -
https://recharge.jp/blog/culture/fd3stps/
Seems to say that the later TPS's (maybe 96+ or 99+?) are not plug in compatible with the 93-95 TPS. Dude is making an adapter harness to plug it in.

Neat! That may be from the MX-6 or something. Do you know what car it came from?
EDIT - answered my own question -
"Fits 626, Millenia, MPV, MX-3, MX-6"
Looks like about $180 or so for the part new.

Thomas,
What are the results? You should have received it by now and have installed it.
On Oct. 31, I ordered an ARD alternator from RHD-Japan. It arrived in on 11 Nov. and I installed it on the 12th.

So, I did purchase one, however in that time I realized the one on my car want actually bad, it turned out to be the wax rid wasn't completely removed and was giving me a high idle randomly. Also then my motor popped and needs a rebuild.
i will take pics when I get back home however that won't be for about a week... It's larger than the factory one and looks harder to install, but apparently it's a new denso unit, from what car, I have no idea.
