Target idle speed is compared against actual engine speed to determine the learned Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) value for closed-throttle idle.<\/p>\n<h4>Throttle Position Sensor<\/h4>\n<p>The Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) is used by the TCM to help determine shift points and shift quality. Additionally, the TPS output is spliced to the PCM for fuel control. The PCM provides a 5 volt supply and ground for the sensor. Target idle speed is compared against actual engine speed to determine the learned TPS value for closed throttle idle. This is done to correct for differences in system voltage and sensor tolerances.<\/p>\n<p>If the TCM detects a faulty TPS signal, it provides continued operation of the transaxle by using the TPS value sent over the communications bus by the PCM.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stalls and dies I have a 1999 Chrysler Town and Country lxi 3.8 engine.
