This throttle position sensor (TPS) is an electronic component that measures the angular position of the throttle plate, sending this data to the engine control unit (ECU). Manufactured to precise Volvo standards, it ensures accurate throttle input readings, unlike a worn sensor that provides erratic signals. Operators may experience poor engine performance, such as hesitation, stalling, or inconsistent acceleration, if this sensor fails.

Cross-reference part number with serial number before ordering to confirm fitment. Keep original parts until new ones are confirmed correct. Record part numbers replaced for future reference.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The first sign of a faulty throttle position sensor is often inconsistent engine idling or a lack of response when pressing the accelerator. As the problem worsens, the engine may hesitate during acceleration, experience rough idling, or even stall unexpectedly. This can lead to a frustrating driving experience and potentially affect the vehicle's drivability.
Ensure the throttle plate is in the closed position and the sensor is aligned correctly before tightening the mounting screws to prevent incorrect readings. Do not apply excessive force when connecting the electrical connector, as it can be brittle.
Clean the throttle body thoroughly while the sensor is removed to ensure optimal airflow and sensor function.
