Don't assume it's bad. Check the connectors and clean them with
contact cleaner, run through the diagnostic procedures first.

FYI - contact cleaner did some funky things to my colorful gaskets
in Nissan connectors, remove the gaskets first.

Actually, in this recent thread, you will notice that 0510 points to
the rear oxygen sensor, not the TPS:

96 Max GLE, 106k

The thread is just below this one, and he also pointed out he called it that
from memory, but upon further checking agreed that it was the TPS.

Thanks!

What is the diagnostic procedure??

I don't have a svc manual.

Thanks!

TPS Sensor is about 55-65$ US depending on where you get it. I had good luck
getting mine at Autozone which had the same exact Hitachi made TPS sensor.
Easy to replace, unscrew the tiny screws and replace. Pay attention to how
much the TPS sensor was tilted. To adjust: Do not tighten the screws all the
way down, hook it up, run the engine til it's totally warm and turn it
counter clockwise until the engine RPMs surge, then back it down to where
the RPMs are normal. Tighten screws and youre done.

This method could not be any more wrong.

Nirav, Please post the correct way to set up a TPS

OK, I found the correct instructions, replaced the TPC, and reset the code.
All was working fabulously for a few days, then Bingo! on comes the Service
Engine light again. I check the code, and this time there are TWO: one is
the same (0510 - TPC), and the other is 0707 - Rear Heated O2 Sensor. I
don't believe that the new TPC went bad so quickly, so I reset it to make
sure and see if it comes back with the same code.

Meanwhile, I will assume I have to do the rear O2 sensor. Anybody have
links/pointers to doing this job?

TIA,

Daryl
