Gotta run but this is a motronic input.
Per Motronic manual
" The signal from the throttle position sensor is equal to the throttle
valve opening in degrees.
The throttle valve opening above 35 o is used for charge pressure
control.
The signal from this sensor is used as a substitute function for the MAF
and diagnosis of the closed throttle position switch.
Self-diagnosis-
Self-diagnosis reognizes two faults in the G69 cirsuit, brea/short to
positive and short to ground. The fault "signal too large/too small" is
used for charge pressure control and knock control.
In case of a fault, the throttle valve opening of 28 o is used as a
substiture function and charge pressure control is switched off."
Obviously I dont understand all this or I would summarize.
It's located on the throttle body, forward side of your samco hose.
Maybe just clean it up??
