Haltech Forum Area is for discussing Haltechs

I put a Hall effect TPS on a FC throttle body. I'm almost certain this is clockwise.

Im pretty sure I seeing this as clockwise. I know I have it marked as such. The Haltech instructions have me all nerves about the misfiring and frying this wonderfully expensive piece. Also confirming pig tail placement. I do understand that the flat spot "D" on the TPS must line up with the wire. I find this odd because I would expected to be able to zero out the position anywheres in the 360 degree sweep. Any issues anyone sees before I commit to pinning this as a clockwise TPS?


pressed in a bushing.

TPS sensor. real solid bracket. Needs paint.

Concentricity to the TB shaft is important to prevent physical wear to the TPS.

You appear to have a good fit with the use of a bushing. Align bushing to shaft, then bolt down bracket.

How did you resolve the double D TB shaft to the single D of the TPS?

No more oil injector pump rod. I assume you're pre-mixing.

Yes, it's clockwise.

Thank you.

The mount for the rod is still there, just on the other side.

The D shaft was exceptionally close per my micrometer. It fits outside of just a bit running some emory cloth on the threads. Fitment is perfect, positive engagement. just under snug with no freeplay.

TPS is on the firewall side next to the throttle cable guide! I missed that. Good solution.

I'll follow your example if I ever have to ditch the resistance TPS.
