How to Remove and Install the Throttle Position Sensor on Jeep Grand Cherokee?

This procedure is applicable to 3.7L V6 and 4.7L V8 engines, excluding Hemi engines and 3.6L V6 engines with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system. The ETC system does not utilize a removable TP sensor. To begin, disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal. Next, remove the air intake duct and the air resonator box. Proceed by disconnecting the electrical connector from the TP sensor and removing the TP sensor mounting screws. Take out the TP sensor from the throttle body. When installing the TP sensor on the throttle body, ensure that the locating tangs on the backside of the TP sensor align with each side of the flat end of the throttle shaft. The sensor should fit flush against the throttle body and be able to rotate a few degrees to align the mounting holes. If not, reposition the locating tangs correctly and try again. Finally, reverse the steps for installation.

Jeep Grand Cherokee Throttle Position Sensor

The TPS in Jeep Grand Cherokee cars has an important working of regulating the air fuel ratio for better combustion. The Throttle Position Sensor constantly informs the fuel injection system of the throttle position with signals that the vehicle computer can use to adjust fuel rates with the power needed by an engine. This feedback loop happens a few times per a second making the acceleration, cruising, and deceleration processes rather seamless. Through the years, Jeep has used the Throttle Position Sensor of different types in the Grand Cherokee - the potentiometric, non-contact types such as Hall effect inductive, and magnetoresistive sensors. Unlike the older models which required direct touch, these new sensors measure changes in the magnetic field; this makes the new models more reliable and fast. Also, other related throttle accelerator pedal sensors such as WOT sensors, cooperate with the Throttle Position Sensor to enhance the overall efficiency of the engine as used in Electronic Throttle Control.
