Need help with TPS code & reduced engine power
I'm getting P1220 TP sensor 2 circuit and P1221 TP sensors 1,2 performance. These are causing reduced engine power mode and I need to know if there is anything I can do other than just replace the sensors and/or the connector. Also, where is TP sensor 2? I never knew there was a 2. Anyone have access to the diagnostic procedures in section 6 of the the engine controls manual? Planning to get aset of manauls but i need to get this fixed tonight, or at least try.

How to safely clean?

I have noticed that the tps connector and wires are conveniently located directly above the path of the accesory belt and were likely given a nice whipping by the frayed edge of my belt. I don't see a broken connnection in any of the tiny wires leading into the connector but it seems the most likely source of the problem.
