Hello, so I am getting a Throttle Position Switch CEL, i went and did a log with dsmlink and the tps stays at 0 and .4 volts. So i took off the hanress and checked the resistance at pins 1 &4 and 2 &4 and both were in spec (4500 ohms on 1 & 4, and 0-5k ohms on pin 2 & 4 as i hand rotate the throttle). So I checked the voltage at the tps pin at the ecu and it is getting .4 volts just like dsmlink says.

So I have low voltage coming from the tps but the resistance values are all good, so is my tps bad or is it more likely that i have bad wiring/ground?

Also, I checked the ecu harness sensor ground pins with voltmeter and both grounded ok.
 
Ok link isn't showing voltage but I have 5 volts at the connector and the ecu pinout I had .63 volts last week and now nothing at all can anyone help.
