>> Check with your meter that the closed-throttle switch opens (voltage on the line goes up to ~5 V) when you open the throttle, and closes when the throttle is closed. << Nope, no voltage across the TBS. If I take the wires off the TBS and measure the volts it 5+ V. When I put an ohmmeter across the TBS (engine off) and it's reading a closed circuit at what would be idle and if I open up the throttle it stays a closed circuit. If I move the throttle around sometimes it opens up and the ohmmeter drops to 0 for a split second. Sounds like a bad TBS doesn't it?
