Yamaha TPS - Throttle Position Sensor problems and symptoms

Yamaha TPS - Throttle Position Sensor - is one of those topics that you never heard about, until it leaves you high and dry by the side of the road with no way to fix it and no idea of what it may be.

With that in mind, Yamaha a few years ago made a recall for all the defective TPS serial number ranges, but not everyone got to know about that, and many different models of Yamaha's that use those defective TPS's are still out there. 

But let's start in the beginning, what is the TPS, what does it do, and why should you worry. 

In a nutshell, the TPS is a small sensor that sits on the right side of the XT660R - may differ on other models - and will tell your injection system how much of throttle you are giving, and on its way, will adjust how much fuel it needs to deliver. Once it gets defective, the bike will start to stall, usually when pulling the clutch to start driving, and once the problem gets worst, it will stall even while driving.

So what can you do?

First of all, click on the following link, it will determine if your bike is within the brands recall - http://www.vosa.gov.uk/vosa/apps/recalls/default.asp

Secondly, give our blog post a look, there we show some pictures that might help you compare the old and the new models of TPS :)
