Want this question answered?
You don't adjust it. You buy a new one and replace it.
It is a Throttle Position Sensor
If it is and automatic transmission the idle will be at about 900 RPM and is not recommended to be adjusted but can be adjusted at the trottle position sensor (TPS) located just abouve the air heater intake on the driver side. If the truck is a manual transmission the idle should be in between 700 and 850 RPM and is not recommended to be adjusted but again can be at the TPS.
On a computer controlled transmission, the throttle position sensor is one input used for shift timing.

At your own risks. I had a similar problem with my 1996 Explorer Eddie Bauer...Unfortunately, I replaced the transmission as a unit and later on found out that a faulty TPS sensor may cause the transmission to disengage. I would suggest a process of elimination by starting with the small item first which in this cars may be the TPS sensor. JB
there is none its controled by the tps sensor located on the pleteum
Yes, the tps signal is sent to your ecu. the ecu decides when to activate your transmission shift solenoids. if the tps is sending the wrong signal, then the ecu is giving the signal at the wrong time causing a hard shift.
I doubt it is the tps. Could it be the transmission shifting in and out of overdrive?
I had this problem, I had a faulty TPS sensor
No. It has a solenoid, no cable or rod. It drops a gear under heavy acceleration from a signal from TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) to TCM Transmission Control Module)
Dozens. Tps, MAP, crank, cam, coolant temp, ambient temp, knock, abs wheel speed, transmission input and output speed, transmission range, transfer case position, airbag, ac pressure,Just off the top of my head.Dozens.
