TPS Problem?
Hello all,
Today the Check Engine light came on and the auto trans will not come out
of 1st gear on my 94 Cherokee with a 4.0. I checked the codes and got a
code 24, TPS sensor. Anyone know if the TPS sensor crapping out would cause
this? Thanks for any info!

Re: TPS Problem?
Yes it will. It controls shift points as well as throttle speed.
The connections usually just get dirty. You can clean them out with a
spray contact cleaner. I have to do our old 88 Cherokee's TPS every
couple years now.
Same goes for the CPS, when it dies, it is usually just the connection.
A real little gold mine in planned obsolescence they have going.
Changing the part also cleans half the connection and scratch cleans the
other half.
