You cant,Replace it if that is your problem,Its all in the computer network and cannot be removed.it tells the computer where the throttle is so it can deliver the correct air and fuel to the combustion chambers.....
No.
unhook your battery. remove sensor. no setting is needed.
probably failed throttle bypass solenoid or possibly throttle position sensor
Must remove the throttle air intake hose from throttle body. Then disconnect the wiring and remove the sensor and spray with mass air flow sensor cleaner.
it is located in the throttle body. On the bottem. You need to remove the air filter hoses, remove the 4 bolts to the throttle body and then 2 screws to remove the tps.
remove and reinstall
A throttle position sensor on any car is on the side of the throttle body. You can backprobe it with a voltmeter to check its operation. If you remove it, you'll have to calibrate it with the voltmeter, adjusting it within slotted holes.
i found it easier to remove the throttle body to access the tps sensor. the screws can be somewhat difficult to loosen due to corrosion and position of the sensor.
Disconnect the battery. On the side of the throttle body, disconnect the wiring from the position sensor. Remove the bolts from the sensor, and lift the sensor off, reverse the procedure to install the new one.
The 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue throttle position sensor is held in place with two retaining screws. Remove the retaining screws and the wiring harness. Reverse the process to install the new throttle position sensor.
It is located on the outside of the throttle body in line with the butterfly. Remove the air intake from the throttle body and it will be accessable on the back side of the throttle body. Easier to work on if you remove the throttle body. Easier to clean it too.
I have a 2004 Alero and I just figured out today and replaced my throttle positon sensor. I'm not sure what the black plastic "box" is called that is above the throttle assembly...but I had to remove that to get to the throttle position sensor underneath. If you can locate the two wires that control the throttle assembly...then the throttle position sensor is on the other side of the throttle assembly. I had to remove the large tube that went from the air filter to the black plastic "box" above the throttle assembly. Also disconnected anything else connected to that black plastic "box". Then pulled that "box" up and right there on the left side of the throttle assembly was the throttle assembly sensor. Here is a web page with a picture that helped me figure out where it was. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throttle_position_sensor
