Throttle Position Sensors

Anyone know if TPS's with different part numbers are interchangable?

 

I have a good TPS bosch part no - 0280 120 327 . This came off a throttle body with a black 'reel'.

 

I want to use this on my good throttle body which has a white 'reel', the orginal TPS for this body had a part no. of 0280 120 310.

 

Cheers :rolleyes:

might be a potentiometer rather than a switch, does it have a "click" when the butterfly returns to its stop?

Yush, both click.

 

They are potentiometer's as far as I know with an off position indicated by the click. I didnt mention switch's.

 

Are TPS's interchangable? I know the black reel and white reel bodys need different length throttle cables, I dont know however if their TPS's are 'tailored' :rolleyes:
