Throttle position sensor??

[st1989]

hi guys, got a problem, my slip control light is flashing,

 

ive had the throttle body off today but after putting it back on the slip light started flashing when i started the car

 

ive read in another post that this can be caused by the throttle position sensor and read that i was to loosen the two screws and see how it adjusted the revs, i can hear the sensor clicking and the revs drop but i dont know what it should be set at.

 

any ideas?

 

cheers

if it was fine before you took the throttle body off then i would say that you might of damaged a wire in removing or replacing, i would defenantly check and go over all that you have done first even look in the dionostic port you may have moved something in there.

Well I dot think it's any wires as I took the throttle sensor off not realising what it was I'm just wondering if these can be set again easily? And how to set it, I've loosened the screws while the car is running and I can hear the sensor opening and closing. Just don't know where it should be set.

guys ive been trying for ages to set this sensor, once ive tried setting it ive been told to pull out efi fuse no2, leave it for a min or so then try start the car.

 

ive tried this but when the car is started the throttle "clicks" then once it stops the slip control light flashes, i noticed when driving it the manu mode wont work either.

 

ive had the car running and loosened the sensor, i can hear it clicking once and then the revs drop.

 

can anybody shed some light on how this sensor works and how to set it properly as i dont quite understand the maunal.

 

cheers
