200hp efi throttle positioning sensor.
serial # 06938619
1999 200hp efi
My throttle positioning sensor alarm is sounding off. Replaced it with a used one. Same problem. Is there a way to test the sensor.
Or is there something else I should check?
Thanks.

Not aware of a TPI alarm. If you are getting a steady tone it will be an overheat alarm. If it is a beeping tone, it is a low oil, motion sensor or oil warning module failure. When ever you change a TPI you must have the TPI test harness hooked up to a digital meter and must disconnect the port side cyl head temp sensor wires in order to adjust it to spec. .200-.300 ohms at idle position. The desired setting is .250 ohms. They can be difficult to adjust.

Don't rely on that chart as there are several items that can cause that warning.
Moving thread to the 2.5L Forum for you.
