TPS Sensor

[fire717]

New guy here..Hope this is the correct place for this post..
I have an 03' Liberty...Recently the check engine light came on and the engine sputtered, idled rough and sometimes died. This would last for a short time then the rig would go back to normal driving...later the light would go off after a restart..anyway it turned out to be the TPS sensor..or so I thought...after about 2 mos it did it again. Now I have replaced the sensor again assuming the first one was bad. If this occurs again, is there something else I need to look at? Ha sanyone had similar problems? Thanks
Eric

Where are you buying those TPS sensors from? If it's from advance auto,auto zone,napa,carquest,or checkers your lucky you got 2 months out of it.Engine sensors and accessories should be replaced with OEM only,many years of experiance from working in the business has tought me this.

The first one was from a Jeep dealer, number 2 is from Napa...so who knows whats up.

What code was the Jeep throwing when you replaced the sensor?

Did you get the memo? About the new TPS coversheets?

 

[ThunderbirdJunkie]

Yeeeeaaah...see, we're putting coversheets on all our TPS reports now...so if you could...TRY and do that for me that'd be GREEEEEEEAT

Could have just been a faulty sensor... Check the plug for the sensor and make sure the contacts are clean, use a little contact cleaner on them if you need to, and even a little bit of dielectric grease to repel any moisture getting into it... Other than that just see how long the new sensor goes!
