TPS wiring
I'm using a Nissan TB with TPS. It is a simple 3wire. I figured out its ground, and got it setup to output a signal to MS. I get a nice TPS reading now.
EXCEPT.
It is only reading 131 (closed) and 228 (open). I calibrate the TPS with those (it asks if I really want them, since it is so far off... I say yes). It then shows as like 40% to 88% throttle, instead of scaling it to 0-100%
Thoughts?

Working on tps/ebc wiring tonight. Out in car... so any help asap is awesome.

Signal line is outputing 2.5v to 4.5v (closed/open)
4.9v between gnd and 5v ref line.
I'm using the 18" DIY harness to wire into stock ecu plug setup.
Blue (tps signal) is going to Red in 1N
Grey (vref 5v) is going to light green/white in 2L

It's a 93.
I can get it to read linear with the throttle being opened. So I guess the wiring is right. It is just outputting wierd values (instead of 1-4.5ish stuff).
I calibrated, but it still kept showing the skewed values, it didn't "port" them into 0-255

Oh yea.. I don't mind statics, dynamics, stuff like that. It's this proton/electron/bullshit-tron stuff that sucks. Oh well, guess it's important (Probably not). Still can't believe that's all that was wrong. You could have just gave up and tried again tomorrow and it would have probably worked. And to think of all the times I've read someone couldn't get (insert EBC or something) on their MS to work and now it's all of a sudden working for no reason.

At this point my adapter harness for the TPS is done, EBC is done. Wiring other than full throttle/water injection/map switching is done. Those can wait
Man... i love finishing things.
