There are two primary types
of throttle position sensors (TPS): a potentiometer or a non-contact sensor Hall Effect sensor (magnetic device).
Like the majority
of throttle position sensors on modern fuel injected cars and trucks nowadays, the GM TPS is a three wire Sensor.
If it is really dirty on the inside, if the idle control valve is failing, or
of the throttle position sensor is failing then this will occur...
Not exact matches
In fuel injected cars
of this type, there is usually a
throttle position sensor which tells the computer how far the plates are open and adjusts the other engine components accordingly.
This needs
sensors to measure not only the speed, but the
positions of the teeth, and the
throttle may need to be opened softer or harder.
The
throttle / accelerator pedal
position sensor detects the
position of the accelerator pedal.

and so what will save you time, money and the frustration
of replacing good parts, is to test the
throttle position sensor.
The most common causes
of Diagnostic Trouble Code P2118 are failure
of the
throttle actuator control motor, a failed pedal
position sensor, a faulty
throttle position sensor, an open or short in the actuator circuit, or a poor electrical connection anywhere in the control circuits for the foregoing components.
Hi There, There are a number
of things that may cause the car to hesitate when accelerating such as low fuel pressure, a dirty or faulty mass air flow
sensor, clogged or dirty fuel injectors, a faulty

The
throttle position sensor also controls shifting the gears
of a vehicle, which means that a faulty
throttle position sensor will prevent a car from changing gears.

If the rate
of acceleration is greater than commanded (aka, «unintended acceleration»), you might have a problem in the electronic
throttle control,
throttle position sensor, idle air control, or related systems.

The lack
of response to the accelerator pedal has quite a few potential causes that would have to be sorted out in a diagnostic including, just as a few examples, plugged fuel injectors, faulty oxygen
sensors, fuel pump and / or filter, vacuum leaks including that caused by a faulty EGR system, ignition system malfunctions, bad valve timing if the timing belt or chain is worn or skipped, blocked exhaust (e.g., catalytic converter fails or becomes clogged), a faulty airflow
sensor or
throttle position sensor, and so forth.

Hi There, It sounds like you are describing the symptoms
of a failing
throttle position sensor.
Each clutch is actuated mechanically by an electric servo motor, which acts on the basis
of inputs from the same
sensors that feed their information into the DSC system: vehicle speed,
throttle position, wheel rotational speed, steering angle and yaw rate.
[2] The ECM is a type
of electronic control unit (ECU), which is an embedded system that employs software to determine the required
throttle position by calculations from data measured by other
sensors, including the accelerator pedal
position sensors, engine speed
sensor, vehicle speed
sensor, and cruise control switches.
To make its engine performances even better, Kawasaki added a digital fuel - injection system which offers automatic elevation compensation, automatic idle adjustment and easy, choke - free starting via a sophisticated array
of sensors for inlet air pressure,
throttle position, crankshaft
position, rpm, and water temperature.
A 32 - bit, 80 MHz central processor unit (CPU) within the Ridgeline's powertrain control module calculates injection timing and duration after assessing an array
of sensor signals: crankshaft and camshaft
position,
throttle position, coolant temperature, intake manifold pressure and temperature, atmospheric pressure, and exhaust - gas oxygen content.
The system, which is driver selectable uses clutch, gear
position and propshaft
sensors, together with finely - tuned programming
of the engine management, to mimic the technique
of heel - and - toe downshifts; the act
of blipping the
throttle while braking and changing gear.
