I’m thinking of getting this as I’ve had to replace a couple tps now
Question is will it throw out a code?
I plan on getting a new tps then adding this & clearing my current P0121 code
Has anyone here used or is currently using this product?
Thanks Everyone

 

No one's installed this or anything similar to it?
I'm trying to fix my throttle issue
Thanks again

 

 

I’ve never heard of this. What is it supposed to do?

 

It’s supposed to open the throttle all the way when you step on the gas instead of opening it around 20% like stock

 

This aftermarket part will be a mechanical override for the Toyota's Electronic Throttle Control System-intelligent found on the 2JZ-GE engine.
The OEM system uses a servo motor and gear drive system to control the throttle plate based on the command of the Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor.
The system has a fail-safe mode of operation in which the throttle cable is able to open the throttle up to 20% when fully depressed to safely drive the vehicle to the nearest repair station.
For 99% of the owners of this car this factory system works fine, and I doubt that you will find partners to modify it.

ETCS-i System Troubleshooting

 

So essentially this works even better then one of those throttle booster like sprint and blitz or whatever they were called

 

Those "throttle boosters" just trick the throttle control into thinking you've pressed the throttle more than you actually have, giving it the impression of being more responsive.

The throttle lock simply allows the throttle to be fully actuated by the cable instead of only as a failsafe, it doesn't change the relationship between pedal position and throttle position.

 

I wish I knew about this when I had my GS430. That delay from the electric throttle is noticeably annoying. Don’t have this problem with my GS4 really. Although I heard it’s not fully operated by the cable and has electric throttle also. However, the difference I felt after tightening the throttle cable tells me otherwise.

 

Well, the topic starter just needs to troubleshoot his ETCS-i system, not modify it.

 

My black wire was cut in half under the loom
i reconnected it & all is fine now
