The Throttle Position Sensor, otherwise known as TPS in the Ford Taurus is an important gadget that is responsible for handling the air fuel mixture that enables an efficient running of the engine. The position of the throttle is constantly recorded by the sensor and this data is useful to vary the supply of fuel needed in the fuel injection system of the vehicle depending on the power requirements of the engine. It occurs all the time to make Ford Taurus accelerate, cruise or decelerate as it is required. Ford Taurus realized the use of different types of Throttle Position Sensors, the conventional potentiometric sensors, these new generation non-contact sensors. The older potentiometric style sensors worked by contact and possessed a metal brush with the target resistive strip upon which it moved to identify resistive alterations. On the other hand, the more recent models of the Ford Taurus use non-contact type which uses hall-effect, inductive or magnetoresistive components. These modern sensors work through the change in magnetic field without the need of physical contact hence improving on the durability and accuracy of Throttle Position Sensor. The change of contactless Throttle Position Sensors in Ford Taurus genus is a qualitative change in car electronics as a result of the on going technological improvement, and gives enhanced performance and durability. Both kinds of Throttle Position Sensor are fundamental to the control of an engine's throttle body for the purpose of improving and enhancing the efficiency of fuel consumption in a car, as well as the general operating experience behind the wheel.
