I did a 00VI swap in a 95 maxima and the idle would not go under 1500rpm. This is the first 95 maxima with the 1 plug on the TPS sensor instead of 2 plugs. Everyone is saying this may have something to do with it but I am lost at this point.

I added the IACV plate from Stephen max and it still idles at 1500. I tried it would the IACV attached and the same thing.

Any ideas why the idle would not go down? The car drive and pulls great but the idle would not go down HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

 

You mean 00VI?

Have you checked the TPS adjustment? Looked for vacuum leaks? Any codes?

What TB are you using? Is the FITV operating properly?

 

lol yes 00VI. I am using the TB from the 2000. I adjusted the TPS sensor and the lowest is goes is 1500rpm. All the codes are emissions

 

TPS is adjusted using a Ohm-meter to 500ohms. You need it to calibrate. Did you adjust via the IACV adjustment screw?

Did the previous owner mess with the Throttle Body set screw? Its what adjusts the butterfly plate position. If this was a used 00vi, they might have adjusted it previously. Check to see if the red paint (loc tite) on that adjustment screw/nut is not broken.

 

I will take a look at it today and see if the screw was adjusted.

 

How do you calibrate TPS using a Ohm-meter to 500ohms, I have no clue how to do this.

Hey i just did the same swap into my 96 and its doin the same exact thing! let me know if u find a way to fix it.

 

You twist it. There's a dial in the inside thats pushed as it is twisted. (note the 2 screws and how the black plastic screw holes have extra movement space on the TPS) You have to twist it until it reads 550~ohms and lock it into place.

 

I will try this tomorrow. But I have another question the TPS on this maxima only has 1 plug not 2 like the pics does it work the same as this is the first 95 built.

 

fix it?

 

hey dk if u fixed it yet BUT i had the same problem heres how i fixed mine. first i hooked the coolant lines up thru the TB like there supposed to be (i did the collant throttle bypass so i rehooked it up. ALSO the TB might not be calibrated just get a 8mm socket and a screw driver and turn down the idel thats how i fixed it and didnt have a prob ever since!

 

I am using the throttle body from the 2001 how do I adjust the it. Where is it located on the 2001 throttle.

 

its located right near the cable to the tb i wish i had a pic it requires a 8mm socket and a screw driver realllly easy im using a 2001 tb as well so its the same lol but its a like 8mm nut and theres a screwinside u losen the 8mm alittle! and then turn it lightly with a friend in teh car telling u what the rpm is at then snug the 8mm back up

 

I tried this but still nothing any other ideas

 

I hope you calibrated your TPS before you messed with that TB screw...

 

No I did not. Still a little lost on the calibation process
