    Not Getting WOT

    I scanned my 2005 Corvette 6 speed. I am never getting more than 88 percent throttle and it it is always exactly 88 percent every shift. Is this normal? If not what should I check. Thanks for anyhelp you can give.

    That is a GM error in the TPS PID. Use ETC TPS % instead.

    Thanks for the response. I am a little new to this so can you tell me what the abbreviations mean.
    PID and ETC specifically.

    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    GM now deciphers it differently...but yes you are going WOT & seeing 100% TPS...you just need to use a different PID

    Just delete the TPS% value on the table view and replace it with ETC TPS%. You will then see 100%.
