Breeze, Neon, Sebring Convertible & Stratus

  1. Remove components for access to electrical connector at TP sensor mounted on throttle body. With electrical connector installed on TP sensor, turn ignition on with engine off. DO NOT start engine.
  2. Using Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM), check voltage at center terminal on electrical connector for TP sensor with throttle valve closed (idle position). Voltage should be within specification. See 4-CYLINDER TP SENSOR SPECIFICATIONS  table.
  3. Slowly open throttle to full throttle and note voltage reading. Voltage should smoothly increase to specification. See 4-CYLINDER TP SENSOR SPECIFICATIONS  table. Replace TP sensor if voltage is not within specification.
