possibly. i can't say. that a safety thing you probably want to look into. take it one step at a time.



i had something similar happen recently. turn out to be cables. but... i can't say that's what is going on here.

Well I'll start by cleaning the throttle body. Don't think it's the cables because they seem good to me. If that doesn't work I'll start with the multimeter. Where would I connect the multimeter at?

2009 sportster 883 iron Code P0122 like above.
I believe I might have the wrong tps sensor on it. At the TPS location the shaft sticking out spins clockwise when opening the throttle. When I test my TPS it is under tension to go counter clockwise. When I test the TPS sensor it has .51v at its home position and turning it counter clockwise it goes up to 4.8ish V. I believe that is the correct range, but it is happening in the wrong direction.

Any guidance there? I wanted to check before I buy a different part.

That is the correct voltage range for a TPS, did you replace the tps? If you did, where did you purchase it from? Do you still have the old one if you changed it?
