How to use the Nihilo Concepts TPS Setting Tool

[@brunodekeyser3513]

When you do it this way its only oke, when you also do the tps calibration. When you do it like this without the tps calibration its more off than before. Your ecu wil stil think 0,3800 volt is the zero setting while you have changed it to 0,4000 volt. Great video, butt at the calibration process to it. To have no problems.

Regardless of the comments below the way he's doing it in this video is right, I have been using a TPS setting tool since 2017 on all 6 KTM's that I have had. Every bike I have checked in America has come set Lean from the factory, the other day I checked my buddy's new 2024 KTM 300SX and it was too rich at 0.50. And if you think with a regular volt meter good luck with that because the TPS sensor is very sensitive you will spend an hour trying to get it right.

It's funny that according to you they all come lean from the factory, and yet KTM has the tightest calibration spec of all the major brands. Hmmm?

How would using a volt meter be any different or more difficult than this tool given you still need to clock the TPS? This tool isn't particularly precise at 2 decimal points so hitting .4 and .5 is easier but not as accurate if that matters.

[@wwilcox2726]

@@TeamStruggleBunny you're correct about the 2 decimals and it does matter because the ECU's resolving is much finer (12 bit over 5v = better than 3 decimals) than this tool. Also the imprecision of the TPS setting is a greater issue at small throttle openings than it is for large throttle openings.

@@wwilcox2726 Makes sense. I had good luck on my 2015 500 exc with increasing the voltage a tiny amount. It really woke the bike up. I'm wondering if a very mild increase would give more bottom end, carb like feeling, on a TBI bike. Tacomoto suggest this works down low but really leans the bike up in the upper values or revs.

Is that the same process and values for both 4 stroke an 2 strokes?

[@miscreantt]

How does this differ from the much cheaper tpstool that also doesn't require using the power up dongle or even taking off the seat?

[@booger65man]

What tool is that?

[@JohnHowerton137]

This uses the bikes voltage Vs. onboard power from the other tool.

Bro is selling a voltmeter for $250 😂

[@wwilcox2726]

A low low low resolution one at that.... 2 decimal places :-/

[@ryanstewart1521]

Yeah put it plugs in instead of probing and ruining your connections though

[@skidjs]

$250! Nope!

[@wwilcox2726]

👎 :-/ That's not the proper method.

[@78raarons]

What is the proper method?

[@wwilcox2726]

​​It's different for each of the displacements 250/350/450/500 and you don't set your rpm to whatever you desire or you may create stalling/dying issues. The cold start is also different for each of the models. ​And don't confuse "setting" the TPS with "calibrating", because KTM specs to 3 decimal places and usually only a total range of 0.005v which is half the resolution of the device. In addittion for true calibration purposes requires a measuring instrument with 4 decimal places of resolution.@@78raarons
