• Q: How to service the Throttle Position Sensor on 2006 Lincoln Mark LT?

  A: The first step to work on the Throttle Position (TP) Sensor includes disconnecting the battery ground cable as well as removing the air cleaner. The service process begins by disconnecting the TP sensor electrical connector. You must first loosen the TP sensor screws using a hand tool by a full to two full turns then switch to a suitable high-speed driver to finish removing them since improper screw handling may result in damage. Securely dispose of both screws together with the TP sensor. The installation process requires new TP sensor parts and new screws since the use of existing components remains prohibited. The radial locator tab on the sensor should match up with the radial locator hole of the throttle body during new TP sensor installation. Secure the new TP sensor by placing it where needed then use the two new screws to fasten it at 3 Nm (27 lb-in). The next steps should include connecting the TP sensor electrical connector followed by placing back the air cleaner and grounding the battery cable back.
