High idle after engine is warm. nothing is sticking with linkage.1992 chev k1500 5.7

Engine code showed 22. checked wiring to tps was all good. idle does surge 200 to 300 rpm . 1000 to 1500 rpm is where it wants too start up.

Make sure the idle screw was not turnned causeing tps sensor to read over the spec limit, the next then is to make sure the idle air control valve is working , a bad valve will cause this problem and last is the stepper motor that controls the idle. some of these around this year used steeper idle control motors instead of idle air control valves and in turn the stepper motor is bad it will hold the throtle plate open to much causing the tps reading to be wrong triggering the engine light to come on. the steeper motor will be boltted to side of the throtlebody and theres a small arm to the throtle linkage. i will enclose a stepper motor picture and an idle air valve to show you, but this sounds like the tps is out of range due to this. the last thing is to make sure there are no vacuum leaks, spray crab cleaner around throtlebody base gasket and also the intake mounting gasket and see if the idle changes is so theres a vac leak in that area. good day. okay just did a little research and this truck does have a idle air control valve, the picture is encolsed and is screwed into throtlebody, check that and for vacuum leaks, make sure tps is good sometime it will test good when testing and go bad when it wants, you could have a bad tps and idle air control valve also.high idle after engine is warm. nothing is stickin - 11_27_2011_9_27_54_pm.jpg

94 Jeep Cherokee TPS - back feed

You are still getting high or low voltage at tps? What is the voltage and do you have a unstable idle? Put you + lead on terminal 3 and - lead on terminal 1 turn ignition on and check voltage to be at approximately 5 volts. You can also back probe with it connected at center wire and ground probe to a good ground at engine. Turn ignition on it should read between 0.20 - 0.90 slowly manually open throttle it should rise all the way to 4.5 voltd at full open. If its bad change tps if no 5.0 volts from pcm on first test check connections at pcm. The center tps connector supply wire comes from pin 22 and connection 3 ( which is 5 volt supply ) comes from pin 6. You should be able to back probe pin 6 turn ignition on and have 5 volts. If not 5 v brain has problem.

Car starts will not accelerate, code reader says Code DTC 22 Throttle Position Low

Well code 22 means the signal coming from the TPS is too low. That usually means an open circuit between the sensor and the engine computer. The computer sends a 5 volt signal to the sensor and reads what comes back to the computer. Its possible the sensor is way out of adjustment, but more likely a broken wire or connector between the sensor and computer. You would need a scanner to "see" the data stream from the sensor to know for sure.

97 F150 5.4 high idle

The PCM (power control Unit) controls the idle speed base in input from various sensors, one of them it's the coolant temp sensor, this sensor may be telling the computer that the engine it''s too cold and the computer will keep the idle up to help the engine warm up faster

Continuos high idle

This happened to me, it was the sensor. From the sound of your problem, it sounds like the air flow sensor (relatively cheap fix)

Hyndia Santro 2000 check engine light is continuously ON. Please he

First, have your ignition timing checked. Have also your EGR checked. if this (EGR) is not functioning properly, engine will lose power. If your engines has a distributor, checked for cracked cap, excessive play in the distributor shaft, and other damaged components. You may want also have your ignition unit and coil checked. Don't forget to inspect the spark plug cables.
For the high idling speed, have it adjusted to specification and look for sticking throttle linkage.

Codes are reading low tps voltage, mapps high voltage ignition on low voltage at idle. Idle surges sputers and stalls when driving. Replaceed mapp and tps with no improvment?

Have you consider to check the battery power. I believe the main problem you have is either the battery or the alternator. Due to these two things with low voltage the brain ( ECU ) does not have the enough power to work. Good Luck.

The service light came on and i checked the diagnostic code which read P0123

A P0123 code means that the computer has detected that the TPS (throttle position sensor) is reporting too high a voltage.


Symptoms may include:

  • Rough idle
  • High idle
  • Surging
  • other symptoms may also be present

A code P0123 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:

  • TPS not mounted securely
  • TPS circuit short to ground or another wire
  • Faulty TPS
  • Damaged computer (PCM)

If there are no symptoms, the simplest thing to do is to reset the code and see if it comes back.

If there are symptoms such as the engine is stumbling or hesitating, carefully inspect all wiring and connectors that lead to the TPS. More than likely the problem is with the TPS wiring. Check the voltage at the TPS (refer to a service manual for your vehicle for this specific information). If the voltage spikes or is too high (over 4.65 volts with key on, engine off), then that is indicative of a problem. Carefully trace each wire from the TPS wiring harness to check for breaks, rubbing against other components, etc.

Code 22

TPS circuit (signal voltage low). Check for sticking or misadjusted TPS. Check all wiring and connections at the TPS and at the ECM. Replace TPS if all else is good

S10 has very high idle when cold and sticks to the gas when warm

you need to replace the throtle body controll sensor. Also you may want to make sure all your linkage from the pedal to the throtle body is cleaned and lubed correctly. While playing in this direct area. Your throtle body is only 4 bolts away. Why not get some carb cleaner and get to know your truck just a litle more.

If this is a carborator, then you need to turn my warmup idle down. there are 2 sets of idles on carborators. the one to warm up the engine, automatic choke or pin settings. Get a Chilton, find out which idles pin is for what. and play a litle bit.

I think you have a throtle body so I would also check the automatic air intake sensor. It could be going bad. Check your filter and make sure its clean.

hope all this helps.
