It is located in the throttle body assembly . Your vehicle has electronic throttle control .
Throttle Body Assembly
The throttle body assembly contains the following components:
?€¢
The throttle blade

?€¢
The throttle actuator motor

?€¢
The throttle position (TP) sensor 1 and 2

The throttle body functions are similar to a conventional throttle body with the following exceptions:
?€¢
An electric motor opens and closes the throttle valve.

?€¢
The throttle blade is spring loaded in both directions and the default position is slightly open.

?€¢
There are 2 individual TP sensors within the throttle body assembly.

Oh yea it has two TPS - throttle position sensors ! An you have to replace the whole assembly !

Replacing TPS will reset the light but will stay in memory until the computer is reset. For help to change throttle body sensor check out you tube :How To Install Replace Throttle Position Sensor Chevy Silverado GMC Sierra.

Locate your air intake. At the opposite end from where the air enters you will find your Throttle Body. There should be two sensors attached to your throttle body. The Throttle Positioning Sensor, and the Idle Air Control Valve.
On my vehicle the TPS is located at the bottom of the throttle body. The IACV is located on the side.
Since I cannot see your particular installation you will have to be the judge as to whether to remove the throttle body or not.
I have learned that it is somewhat easier to remove the Throttle Body in order to replace either of these sensors. And there will be less frustration with dropped bolts and or tools.
Also you will get the sensors installed properly and tightly, then you reinstall a single unit. Be sure to inspect the gaskets on the Throttle Body, and the IACV, replace if damaged in any way.

The 2004 nissan titan is drive by wire, meaning there is no cable to control the gas pedal to throttle.
This system is computer controlled with a motor at throttle body and pedal sensors.

the TPS throttle position sensor is located inside the throttlebody . on most of these the complete throttle body must be replaced as there is no sperate tps sensor it is complete,
i would check and make sure this is the problem . GM started making TPS replacement sensors for there throttle bodies.

throttle position sensor(TPS) its usually located on the throttle body on fuel injected cars.

A THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR (TPS) is usually located on the butterfly spindle so that it can directly monitor the position of the throttle valve butterfly.
Throttle actuator control(TAC), that code comes from that part of the system too.


Throttle body showing the sensor on the right.

on a 2006 it is on the throttle body at the throttle plate. There are actually three TPS sensors in this configuration. One attached to the gas pedal. One attached to the throtle body And, one located inside the top of the engine block. The defective TPS sensor is removable with four screws. American Suzuki has to be a pain in the *** by selling it only as part of the entire throttle body.

I think the terms "Throttle Positon Sensor", TPS and "Throttle Body" can be misleading at least in regards to the 04 Camry.

My 04 Camry gave a diagnostic reading of P2121 for my problem "Throttle PEDAL position switch D circuit". However, we changed out the complete Throttle Body/TPS (Toyota Part #22030-0H020) that did NOT fix problem.

The 04 Camry TPS Electronic Module "Throttle Positon Sensor" is factory assembled and riveted to the side of the throttle body. The only way to service/inspect it would be to cut off or drill out the rivets. Not sure you could open the darn thing if you got it off, but that seems to be the only way Toyota sells them!!

Hopefully a new Throttle PEDAL Position Sensor (Toyota Part # 78010-33010 PEDAL ASSY, ACC)
will fix it. This is located under the dash near the accelerator pedal.

So, now I would recommend FIRST to replace the "Throttle PEDAL Positon Sensor" (it is much, much cheaper) and then the Throttle Body/TPS assembly!! Unless of course, you get a diagnostic code as you did for "faulty throttle body!!

Hi, 
  A sensor like TPS is very easy to change. It is located on the Throttle body. (the part that is at the opposite end of the air intake tube from the air box/ filter) The throttle body looks sort of like a small carburetor, if you look on the side of it you wil see a black sensor.. this is the  TPS. It is usually held on by two or three screws and it will have an electrical plug as well.
