[quote="NafemanNathan"]You've sent it back have you? Pretty sure it was exactly the same in every aspect as the one removed from my Lude, but I'll double check.

The one I've got here, the pin locates in the throttle body and then the TPS unit is rotated 5-10 degrees before you screw it down.[/quote


Yeah it's in the post to you 1st class parcel on Friday as soon as I recieved them..

Yeah I tried that but then when I twist the throttle it won't as the TPS seams to need to twist the other way

You haven't by chance taken the throttle body apart and put the butterfly back in wrong way around?

Iv not no

I compared it to the sensor I removed at the part that the connector clips into on the faulty one is in a different position

Got the TPS back today, although are you sure that's the one I sent you (or the same as)?

The one you sent me is at the top of this pic with the gasket and the bottom one is the OEM I removed from my working H22...

As you can see the connectors are positioned pointing in the same direction and the actual TPS arm is in the same orientaion on both as well, yet as you said the flange is in the wrong position. It actually appears to be mirrored.

However I definitely didn't pick up on that when I received it and before I sent it to you, so you haven't by mistake ordered the wrong replacements and then accidentally sent me one of those have you? (I know you mentioned ordering multiple before).

The one you sent me was correct and fitted but had a dead spot on the multimeter that's why it was hunting so I tried to replace it with the ones I ordered and couldn't do it due to the problem above.

Iv now contacted the seller to get this resolved as iv checked the listing and it's the same as the last time I ordered one..

All 3 of the ones I ordered as the same and won't fit, as you can see from the one you have
He's sending replacements out so as soon as I have them ill get another off to you in the post. Sorry about that

Ahh ok I get you :) At least he's sorting you out. Sorry that other one had a dead spot :roll: Did you get you ones from the same guy as I did (From that link I posted up ages ago)? You don't expect the best quality for the price of them, but you do at least expect them to work from new. Is he expecting the one I've now received back?
