measure resistance between terminals No. 1 and 3. See Figs. 22-29.
2) Slowly open throttle valve to wide open throttle.
Resistance should change smoothly as throttle is opened. Replace
throttle position sensor if it does not test correctly.
Idle Switch (1992)
1) Disconnect throttle position sensor connector. Continuity
should be present between terminals No. 1 and 2 with accelerator pedal
released. See Figs. 22-29. Continuity should not be present with

Park positions. On 1991 models, continuity should be present between
Black/Yellow wire terminals No. 3 and 4. On 1992 models, continuity
should be present between terminals No. 7 and 12. See Figs. 22-29. On
all models, if continuity is not present, adjust inhibitor switch. If
switch is adjusted properly, replace switch.
VACUUM PUMP TEST
1992
1) Remove vacuum pump connector. Resistance should be 50-60
ohms between terminal No. 1 and terminals No. 2 and 3. See Figs. 22-
29. Ensure solenoid valve makes operating noise when battery voltage
is applied between terminal No. 1 and terminals No. 2 and 3.
2) If solenoid valve does not make noise, replace vacuum pump
assembly. Apply battery voltage to terminals No. 1 and 4, motor should
operate. Replace vacuum pump if motor does not operate.

ACTUATOR TESTS
Resistance Test (1991)

No. 1 and 2 should be 20 ohms. See Figs. 17-21. If resistance is not
correct, replace actuator assembly.
Operational Test (1991)
1) With connector disconnected, connect battery voltage to
terminal No. 1. See Figs. 17-21. Ground terminal No. 2. Connect
ammeter between positive side of battery and terminal No. 1 of
actuator connector.
2) Solenoid should make a click sound. Ammeter should read .
5-.7 amps. Connect positive side of battery to terminal No. 4 and
ground terminal No. 3. Actuator should pull in and stop.
3) While actuator is moving in, ammeter should read less than
.5 amps. When actuator travel reaches midpoint, disconnect terminal
No. 1 from positive side of battery. Actuator should return to
original position. If actuator does not test correctly, replace
actuator.
4) Reverse connections of terminals No. 4 and 3 in step 2).
Connect battery voltage to terminal No. 3 and ground terminal No. 4.
Actuator should move out then stop. While actuator is moving, ammeter
should read less than .5 amps.
