    Default '93 525iT getting trans program now, throwing TPS code

    Stomp test reflects code 1216, Throttle Potentiometer (TPS). I replcaed it and it's still throwing it! Any tips? I need to dig out my Bentley and start hooking up the multimeter, but what kinda magic have you guys found?

    Also, it seems to only do this at idle, it has never gone into trans program if im moving.
