Hi,
I am trying to troubleshoot a high idle around 2000 rpms on my Van.
The digital ohmmeter reads 1 or 2 ohms in open + closed position when I connect a  throttle position switch.I read somewhere that it should be at zero ohms.  Is 1 ohm too much?  Does this mean the TPS is bad and should be replaced?
Thanks,Shawn1986 Vanagon 2.1L
