Review Summary
The throttle position sensor replacement part generally received positive feedback, with many customers reporting it was easy to install and effectively resolved their vehicle's issues. However, a small number of users experienced quality problems, such as the part failing shortly after installation or not working correctly out of the box. Overall, the sensor appears to be a reliable solution for common problems like rough idling and acceleration issues, but may not be perfect for all applications.

    Truck started to feel jerky when shifting. Later in the day, Check Engine light came on with this part being the culprit. Got the part the next day & installed it, fixed the issue. The computer uses signal from this part to regulate transmission line pressure.
