Discussion:
Idle surging TPS "A" voltage surging

Unit started surging slightly, with small voltage variance on "A" TPS signal (readable in control head diagnostics mode). Replaced TPS and it ran OK for a bit, then surging came back with a vengeance, with voltage at idle surging from 0.3V to 4.5V, all over the board. Multiple codes thrown. Not really a parts changer myself, but does this seem like a VCM issue or a wiring issue? Wiggled harness everywhere with no change noted.
Thanks.

What unit? Model number at least. Most likely is computer but they typically hold up well. Any chance it was introduced to static? Are you sure your 02 sensor aint giving mixed signal?

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
