REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (Continued)
(2) Remove throttle body. Refer to Throttle Body in
this section.
(3) Disconnect electrical connector from idle air
control motor and throttle position sensor.
(4) Remove throttle position sensor mounting
screws.
(5) Remove throttle position sensor.
INSTALLATION
(1) The throttle shaft end of the throttle body slides
into a socket in the TPS (Fig. 69). The socket has two
tabs inside it. The throttle shaft rests against the tabs.
When indexed correctly, the TPS can rotate clockwise a
few degrees to line up the mounting screw holes with
the screw holes in the throttle body. The TPS has slight
tension when rotated into position. If it is difficult to
rotate the TPS into position, install the sensor with the
throttle shaft on the other side of the tabs in the socket.
Tighten mounting screws to 2 N·m (17 in. lbs.) torque.
Fig. 69 Throttle Position Sensor Installation
(2) After installing the TPS, the throttle plate
should be closed. If the throttle plate is open, install
the sensor on the other side of the tabs in the socket.
(3) Install throttle body. Refer to Throttle Body in
this section.
(4) Attach electrical connectors to idle air control
motor and throttle position sensor.
(5) Install EVAP purge hose to throttle body nip-
ple.
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR (TPS)—2.5L
The TPS attaches to the side of the throttle body
(Fig. 70).
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect EVAP purge hose from throttle body.
(2) Disconnect electrical connector from idle air
control motor and TPS.
(3) Remove throttle body. Refer to Throttle Body in
this section.
(4) Remove TPS mounting screws.
(5) Remove throttle position sensor.

INSTALLATION
(1) The throttle shaft end of the throttle body
slides into a socket in the TPS (Fig. 71). The socket
has two tabs inside it. The throttle shaft rests
against the tabs. When indexed correctly, the TPS
can rotate clockwise a few degrees to line up the
mounting screw holes with the screw holes in the
throttle body. The TPS has slight tension when
rotated into position. If it is difficult to rotate the
TPS into position, install the sensor with the throttle
shaft on the other side of the tabs in the socket.
Tighten mounting screws to 2 N·m (17 in. lbs.)
torque.
(2) After installing the TPS, the throttle plate
should be closed. If the throttle plate is open, install
the sensor on the other side of the tabs in the socket.
(3) Install throttle body to intake manifold. Refer
to throttle body in this section.
(4) Attach electrical connectors to idle air control
motor and throttle position sensor.
(5) Install EVAP purge hose to throttle body nip-
ple.
IDLE AIR CONTROL MOTOR—2.0/2.4/2.5L
The idle air control motor attaches to the side of
the throttle body (Fig. 72) or (Fig. 73) or (Fig. 74).
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect EVAP purge hose from throttle
body.
(2) Remove throttle body. Refer to Throttle Body in
this section.
(3) Disconnect electrical connector from idle air
control motor and throttle position sensor.
(4) Remove idle air control motor mounting screws.
(5) Remove idle air control motor. Ensure O-ring is
removed with the motor.
