Diamante V6-3.5L SOHC (2003)
Normal Condition
3. For vehicles without TCL, check the continuity between terminal 2 (closed throttle position switch) and terminal 1 (ground) of the TPS connector
when the throttle valve is fully closed and fully open.
If there is no continuity when the throttle valve is fully closed, turn the TPS body anti-clockwise and then check again.
4. If there is an abnormality, replace the TPS.
INSPECTION
DASH POT
1. Push the dash pot rod in lightly and confirm the resistance.
NOTE: Resistance increases as the rod is pushed harder.
NOTE: If the rod can be pushed in with no resistance, either the diaphragm or check valve is faulty.
2. Release finger and confirm that the rod returns to it's original position quickly.
NOTE: If the rod returns slowly, the check valve is faulty.
