Why Do I See My TPS Sensor at 115% - K24 swap

Post by HondaHead1 »

I have a 2003 civic with a K24 Motor Swap.
- K24 Complete Motor: Engine and Head
- K20 Type S Throttle Body
- K20 Type S Wire Harness
- K20 Type S Throttle Body Cable Conversion kit from Hybrid Racing

So this is what happens... I have the stock K24 Calibration flashed onto my K-Pro.
the car start up and fires but it holds idle at about 2000 rpm and surges really bad. When I datalog the car, the TPS shows me its at 115%. Why is this happening? I have a feeling that this is why my idle is so screwed. When i give the car gas it just bogs down and dies out. I flashed the stock K20 calibration files onto the Hondata and it doesn't even start and turn over. It only starts if I use the K24 Calibration file.

CAN ANYONE HELP ME!

- Is my TPS sensor crapped out?
- Is there a special setting that I need to adjust on the Hondata when switching from drive-by-wire throttle to cable throttle??

Please HELP!!! Thank you!

Check that your TPS and MAP sensor connectors are not switched around.

TPS and Map sensor is hooked up properly.

Car at idle surges really bad. Any other ideas? Thanks

If you have tried calibrating your TPS in the software and that does not work then your TPS sensor may be damaged.
