How do you replace a TPS and does it have to be calibrated for anything. My truck is a manual transmission is that matters.

Jkidd sells replacement APPS sensors, I'm assuming that's the one you're talking about. Go with him before you go to a dealer, and when you get the kit, it comes with all the instructions. calibrating it is pretty simple, takes maybe about 15-20 minutes to fully install.

Thanks alot. How do I get in touch with him and how much do they run?

they are 160$ I believe he sells Timbo's APPS, OEM prices will scare you as they are 400-500$. the Timbo (williams switch) is more robust and not susposed to suffer the same fail rate as the OEM one,
I have Timbo's apps on mine, and have installed them on 2 other trucks....works good no issues, instructions are simple and easy to follow.

did you get a code for a APPS/TPS failure?

 

[rockingwranglers]

No codes, it just cuts out at half throttle. It's the only thing I could think of. It doesn't do it on cruise or full throttle.

Apps always kick codes the elctronics in your VP dont .......I would look into your VP before i just buy an apps

you gotta lift pump?? you got a fuel pressure gauge?

 

[rockingwranglers]

I take my previous statement back. It has thrown the apps code twice and both times the throttle would not work at all. I cleared the codes and it worked again but still the same cutting out. No fuel pressure gauge just a low pressure light. Lift pump is stock for now. Trying to convince my wife a airdog or fass is the way to go is a little more difficult right now.

the sensor is easy to replace, an it does need calibrated. when we put on in my buddys truck it was already calibrated within the specs the instructions gave.
