Topic: TPS check.

good point with the ground - the sensor ground is different than the vehicle ground, which one did you use to measure the output?

I measured through the sensor ground. Initial voltage is 4,95V, so I assumed the ground is OK.

Good idea is to check gas pedal travel, will do this today.

Just checked gas pedal - seems to be OK. When it is down to the floor, throttle is at maximum opening.

It actually would be nice to hook a scanner to it and see where fuel trim is at under full load. That is about the fastest easiest way to see if it's lacking in the fuel delivery department. You would want to look at both short and long term fuel trim

would also tell you if the ECU is reporting the throttle at 100% opening, you can get an app for you laptop or handheld for OBD2 if you don't have a scanner available but you'll need the cable.

What do you think about this device? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA0U00AF0349
It is China made (like everything these days :) ), but it is available here and not expensive.

It reports all the parameters you are looking for. So as long as it works it will tell you everything you need.

i'd say a bluetooth one would be better, this one is wi-fi

[Vodkaman]

My iPhone doesn't connect through bluetooth, though the BT version is twice cheaper.

[sharpxmen]

so it has wifi but not bluetooth? hmm, what is that iphone v0.1?

[Vodkaman]

It has bluetooth, but connects only with apple devices. It the fist iPhone, don't know which model. :)

[sharpxmen]

maybe something with the pin, there should be a way to do it though, maybe its time to upgrade

[Vodkaman]

It is hard to upgrade the staff that does it's job perfectly. Better wait until it brakes, and buy a new one. But some things don't brake...
