I'm still flashing a code 24 with the new tps installed and now i'm getting a code 22 for coolant sensor. Both of those say 'out of range'; what does that mean?
22**
ECT sensor voltage
too high or too low
Engine Coolant temperature sensor input out of normal range. Check engine temperature sensor.

24**
Throttle position sensor
voltage too high or low
TPS sensor is out of normal range.

Thanks!

it means the voltage the ECU is seeing is out of the acceptable range, either too high or too low.

Time to grab the FSM and the voltmeter and see what you ARE getting.

Well, depends on how the voltage is bad, donnit?

But you'd trace the wiring back to the ECU, and see if there's 5V off the ECU or not, and if it's getting to the sensors. Also checking the grounds.
