The TPS ( Throttle position sensor ) is on most newer vehicles. They are located near the throttle body or the throttle cable near the cylinder head. Its purpose is to keep the vehicle at idle speed without having you keep your foot on the gas pedal. when a TPS goes bad, normally your check engine light will come on and your vehicle will not idle properly.
