so after looking at them, i would think it goes like this? anyone here did it yet? or can shed some light on this?







so, one of the S5 tps's would be cut off and the 3 wires not used. and the other tps would be cut and with those 3 wires, connect them as in the picture. the only wire not used on the FD tps would be the narrow range.



so thats how i think it goes???

j9fd3s 11-18-2007 06:32 PM

no.



the fc uses 2 seperate tps's, the fd uses 1 tps, with a narrow and a wide signal.



the only leftover wires you have are the extra power and ground for the extra tps. the ecu still sees the narrow and wide signals



get it?



fc has 6 wires, 2 power, 2 ground, 2 signal



fd has 4 wires, 1 power, 1 ground 2 signal

sen2two 11-18-2007 07:05 PM

so what wires should be adapted to what?



anyone wanna do a paint picture so we all can see. maybe it could be saved at the top for other people to see.



all the info to adapt a FD manifold to S4/S5 is one here when you search, except for TPS part.

j9fd3s 11-18-2007 09:22 PM

what are the 6 wires in the fc harness for?

sen2two 11-19-2007 08:56 AM

what do you mean?



if you mean what am i using the 6 wires for, its to wire them into the 4 wire TPS for my FD manifold on my S5 TII.



if you mean, what do the 6 wires do, im not entirely sure. one set of 3 are listed in the picture for the S5. and the other set of 3 im not sure. and the FD 4 wire is also listed in the picture.

think about it a sec.



if a throttle position sensor has 3 wires, a power, ground and signal; why does the fc have 6 wires?



because it has 2 tps's.



why does the fd have 4 wires? because it has 2 tps's.

sen2two 11-19-2007 09:01 PM

the FD tps has 4 wires because it has a narrow range and full range setting. the FC tps does not. FC tps's only have full range.



what do you mean the FD has 2 tps's???



your last post really confused me...lol



have you done this before???

this is how i believe it goes

sen2two 11-21-2007 11:34 AM

lol...you just left my house. why didnt you just tell me that here.

ColinRX7 11-21-2007 11:58 AM

Goto the ECU forum, there's a sticky with pinouts for TPSs of different model years





Since the FD TPS is two TPSs integrated, it can use the same inputs for boths, making it 4 wires rather than 6




fc has 6 wires, 2 power, 2 ground, 2 signal



fd has 4 wires, 1 power, 1 ground 2 signal

teknics 11-22-2007 11:48 AM

OMG it took that many posts to finally understand lol.



anywho, did you change out the oil fill neck? fd throttle cable?



kevin.

sen2two 11-22-2007 12:48 PM

OMG! your an ass in every post i have ever seen? Do you even know anything? my bet is you are a internet guru who pays people to do the work?



Questions are asked on a forum to get information. your the reason why most poeple shy away from forums for good information. because there will be 40 posts and 39 on them are "know it alls" given smart ass comments who cant even do there own work.



and you can say what you want. i will not be responding or checking this thread after this.

ColinRX7 11-23-2007 04:21 PM

Well I work in a shop for a living





And so does Kevin





So between the two of us we had at least better know.. Otherwise we wouldn't have passed tests to work in shops for a living..





Just relax.. nobody is razzing you.. And please post again after you try it and let us know if it works.. perhaps we can still help by diagnosing resistance values, incase something goes wrong.

teknics 11-23-2007 05:00 PM

lmao, yea im an internet super tuner. you got me.



LMFAO.



feel free to visit my shop, in my backyard, sometime. or visit me at mazda, where i work.



as for your fd manifold swap, i did the whole thing without asking questions....so whos the dumbass?



kevin.

jwteknix 11-23-2007 05:25 PM

lol me too

Aurosting 11-26-2007 12:23 AM

well i dint work for Mazda but i did worked at a all rotary shop for a year and a half (fuego racing Orlando) and Nissan for 1 year ,and i still have to ask questions because i don't know every thing....but yeah you guys need to stop being asses to all the newbies and every one else ...you don't wana scare away people from this forum or rotaries in general ....sorry sen2two don't mean to call you that...

you worked at an all rotary place for a year and a half and still didnt understand you needed an upgraded ecu for a bridgeport motor?



wow, note to self never visit fuego racing.



and i really dont think what i posted before was flaming, just a random comment that it took so long with people repeating the same thing until it was understood. i didnt say anything harmful.



believe me, i know what flaming is.



as far as scaring people away, I think if i was scaring people away, phinsup wouldnt have made me a moderator, now would he? I just tell it how it is, deal with it.

kevin.

about the bridgeport thing ..hey there are alot of people out there running them with only small things to support them and that was what i was trying to achieve . which by the way i achieve it well the car runs bad ass( with out an aftermarket ecu) .. but thats out off topic so ... i say we drop it and get back to what the post is really about an fd manifold on an fc

what do you mean the FD has 2 tps's???



your last post really confused me...lol



have you done this before???



yes! last time i did it was like 5 years ago, although ive got one in my driveway right now

Yeah an FD totally has a narrow and full range TPS built into one. Did anyone post that yet?

teknics 11-30-2007 05:29 PM

hey did you know an fd tps and an s5 tps are two tps's in one, the s4 is two.



isnt that veird? i like goooooooooold.



kevin.

Aurosting 12-02-2007 09:20 PM

i sure there only one sensor in th s4 im sure ill find out cuz ill be doing the same manifold adaptation soon

ColinRX7 12-03-2007 06:58 AM

There's only one for the S4 and it's a narrow range

j9fd3s 12-03-2007 12:42 PM

There's only one for the S4 and it's a narrow range

teknics 12-04-2007 05:26 PM

i heard the s4 only has a full range?



kevin.

Rob x-7 12-04-2007 05:49 PM

its narrow range, or so I have read a few times in this thread

miltstheman 12-04-2007 06:37 PM

So, if I have an S5 does this mean I need one TPS or 2?



Is there a way I can just use teh FD TPS so I don't have to remember which one is the narrow range one?



lol

teknics 12-06-2007 06:03 PM

i think if you switch to carb you need 3 tps'



kevin.

ColinRX7 12-07-2007 12:47 PM

The TPS replaces the modulator valve assembly in an electrohydraulic transmission. The modulator valve is only used in a hydromechanical automatic (no electronic controls).

you only need 3 if you use the old cover sheets
