what are some (realistic) potential causes for tps malfunction/failure?
-I've heard pressure washing (near there) isn't smart
-Faulty (new) aftermarket parts seem to be a recurring theme in sensor replacement threads
-- How about a bad voltage regulator? what does the tps voltage get regulated by? my alternator tried to fry my wiring a couple months ago with near 17volts!
- has anyone else tested the susceptibility of a tps sensor to crushing from a 24oz waffle head framing hammer?
I'm probably not the first one nor will I be the last one to try it...
But I am pretty serious about finding out why I fry these expensive and important sensors, so your help is appreciated!
