Well after a bit of playing around it looks like grey/ red is the earth. Grey/ white is the test wire and the brown is the constant 5v wire..hope i am right..

Sounds like your finding your own way through it If you do a search in the technical section 4 th one at the top of the page you should be able to source it .

Out of curiosity, what is the voltage these are set at cause it seems you can't adjust the voltage on the AU plugs?

This is a bit of a thread mine, but how is the AU TPS working out for you? Any problems?

I'm running an AUIII 70mm TB on a Trick Flow upper and obviously had to modify the E-series TPS to fit, the plastic was too brittle and broke. I still have the AU TPS so I'm looking to do what you have done.

What colour wires go to which pin (A-B-C)?

Cheers.

I have used these AU TPS wire IDs and successfully installed an AU TPS/TB on a Eseries

Had to drill the AU TPS out 0.75mm to get the adjustment required.

Spliced both TPS wire sets into the AU TPS and Bang 0.98v

Looks good and gives more bonnet clearance than the double TPS setup

Took a while to find the info online, so hope this update will help fellow E series.

Go the ford V8
