throttle position sensor for 1994 xjs
 

Hello, New member with a 1994 XJS 4.0 VIN 192xxx

Book says it needs DBC2626 (square black connector) which are no longer available.

Is DBC2889 (round blue connector) usable by replacing round connector with square as on DBC2626?


thanks

"The TPS units are the same from 1990 to 1994 XJ6 but the HARNESS CONNECTORS ARE DIFFERENT. There are round ones and 'squarish' ones. The earlier 1988/89 have only 3 wires because the gearbox is completely hydro-mechanical and does not need the throttle input.

You can get a Blue round plug TPS and splice the black connector to make it work. They were for the 1990 to 1992 XJ6 but as long as it has 6 wires (3 for the engine and 3 for the gearbox) it will function."

thanks for the fast reply.

I am trying to confirm that the DBC2829 is the same unit referred to as "You can get a Blue round plug TPS and splice the black connector to make it work. They were for the 1990 to 1992 XJ6 but as long as it has 6 wires (3 for the engine and 3 for the gearbox) it will function."

thanks again

Yes, just go to Jaguars Parts website, enter the part number and you'll see that it fits XJ6 & early facelift XJS. Also shows a pic from which you can see the 6 wires. See here:

Good luck
