Sure throwing parts at it is easiest, sometimes. Proper pinpoint diagnosis is the correct way.

He said he made adjustments then it wouldn't start. So we can't assume it's not a setting in ecmlink causing the no start.

Either way the 5v pegged TPS drops back to .63v during cranking which eliminates "clear flood mode" as the cause of the no start. It would need 5v while cranking to shut off the injectors.

Make sure you have your 5v going to the TPS. Also make sure the TPS sensor ground is good. The signal back to ecu should have a sweeping .63v-5v closed to fully open.

damn so quick to jump me here. I'll explain. I was referring to a throttle cable issue I have seen before. maybe the tps is loose and the cable pulls it to 100, also he should make sure it has the proper adjustment also. I would assume the tps is not the issue as he has stated pretty much that he has seen full sweep of it now. who knows maybe he doesn't have it plugged in well either. For someone with link the diagnosing of issues like this is just much easier with some common sense and a little effort usually.

So to update this. I had another set back. I tested wiring. Tested sensor. Both tested out good.*

At this point I was at a loss. So I removed the sensor and purchased another one. Only then when taking out the sensor. I looked at it and found a small part of plastic lodged in the spring. Causing it to stay wide open.*

My car is haunted by dsm gremlins . Im adding that to the list of weird issues ive had owning this car :/
