You need a multimeter to check that it's switching correctly.
Check between the centre pin and the left pin for continuity when the throttle is closed and between the centre and right pin for full throttle (it's more like 3/4 throttle). Or is it the other way round
If you get low resistance readings on this check then it's working fine.
If the TPS is positioned properly the closed contacts should click open as soon as the throttle moves off its stop.
Lose the caps lock mate it's considered as shouting on forums
