TP Sensor Error Code: Function and Troubleshooting

Hello dear participants,
Unfortunately, in addition to the lack of power, my Mazda now has another defect.
The error code indicated a faulty TP sensor.
What is a TP sensor, what is its function, and could it be related to the lack of power?
Thank you for the information.
It's a Mazda 626 diesel with 110 horsepower.
Greetings.
Robs.

hello, is anyone able to answer?
It's probably the throttle position sensor.
Is that the gas chromatograph? Is it for diesel?
'Thank you.'

Hello Robs,

Unfortunately, I can't tell you what a TP sensor is. If it stands for "Throttle Position," then it's the throttle position sensor, which is essentially the accelerator pedal potentiometer. Based on my information, diesel engines with fully electronic control systems always have a throttle position sensor. There's no longer a throttle cable connected directly to the fuel injection pump (especially not with common rail systems).
Das Gaspoti is responsible for transmitting your gas commands to the EDC, so it provides the STG with information about the pressure you are applying with your right foot .

Thank you for the quick response.
I will inform you about what the TP sensor actually stands for.
I only suspected that the throttle position was...
'Thank you.'
