The Throttle Position Sensor or the TPS is very essential with the Ford Explorer Sport Trac in its fuel control wherein series of signals are being relayed back by the TPS concerning the position of the throttle to ideally mix the fuel and air for combustion. In the electronic throttle control system, TPS is connected to the computer of the engine in order to find the quantity of fuel to be supplied in comparison to the air intake. Other forms of TPS include the Closed Throttle Position Sensor otherwise known as the CTPS to show that the throttle is closed fully. Recent TPS employ contactless measurement techniques such current standoff sensors like the Hall effect or magnetoresistive sensors in contrast to the potentiometer ones. When it comes to the broader picture, the TPS and allied accelerator pedal sensors play an interrelated role in the efficiently well-working and performance of Ford Explorer Sport Trac vehicles.
