Code 7

[1PhatCX]

Code 7 is throttle angle, it came up both on my PR4 and PM6... does it mean the throttle position sensor is no good? or it needs to be adjusted?

I would try adjusting it and if that doesn't make your ecu stop throwing the code then I would say it's time for a new one. Also you can check the circuit to see if it's your wires or something going bad.

i heard your better off just buying a hole new throttle body that hasnt had one adjusted.....fact or fiction iunno

well i got this one off my b18 which is identical to the one i had on the zc. except this ones intact. and it worked on the teg when i had it

sensors can go at anytime, but if you're certain that it worked before hand just check your circuit and see if it's your wires.

wires should be fine as well
the car runs fine tho. runs a little rough on first start but thats cuz its like -10 out and its being started for the first time in the morning. but other then that, it runs great

Well if it doesn't run bad then I would say just let it go for now, until something happens then it shouldn't be hurting anything. Maybe even pick up an air/fuel ratio gauge to see if its running lean or not.

i have one, when i let off, its good. when i hit it its rich.... thats cuz i'm running the pr4
the pm6 ran lean

well I would say it's time to replace your TPS then. Good luck finding one, I had to replace mine on my b16 and I went to Acura but they don't sell them individually, I would've had to buy the whole throttle body. I found one on ebay that turned out to be decent.
