if you have multimeter you can work the connections out,

using the meter on ohms,across 2 of the wires you will have fixed resistance (ie doesnt change when you turn the tps).

these are the +5v, and ground.

the other is the signal.

if the tps works the wrong way around, just reverse the +5v and ground wires.

What drive is on the TPS is a "D" or the flat drive post I am after a D TPS for a BMW throttle body to fit the hotwire setup on my baby. Tried the BMW throttle pot and could not get correct readings on the hotwire
