Tachometer jumps to 5K, couldn't find any info on error

[arieljt]

Where does the needle go when you unplug the TPS with the ignition switched on (not with engine running)?

It doesn't change a thing if the TPS is connected or not, still moves from 0-5K.

With everything plugged in and you turn on the ignition switch the rev counter goes to 5000 and then slowly returns to 0? Yes
With the TPS disconnected it does the same thing? Yes

With everything connected, Start the engine and leave it running for 5 minutes. What happens with the rev counter? Only 0-5K as always

Post the result/s as it could be an issue with the clocks????? I don't know, but I'm pretty sure the TPS is faulty


Just to satisfy me and to absolutely sure you are performing the test correctly.

1. Disconnect the TPS - Check
2. Attach the meter leads to the 2 outer pins of the TPS unit on the Carburettor? What is the reading? Around 20Mohm - 26Mohm
3. Now Attach the meter to the lower and centre pins of the TPS. What is the reading? 23Mohm
4. Now with the meter still attached to the lower pin and middle pin, twist the throttle slowly to fully throttle. What is the result on the meter as you twist the throttle and when it is at full throttle?  It reacts to the throttle twist and it moves from ~23Mohm to 1.5 Kohm

I just got back from a Yamaha garage, told them about the 0-5K and they say they are not sure what it is. They set me an appointment for the 14th of August for 25Minutes (lol so precise Germans) of testing of the electrical system and the TPS. They are pretty damn expensive so I would like to buy the TPS myself - Original and give it to them to install, Can someone please link me to a original yamaha TPS for my fazer 600 99'? looked over ebay with no success.. 

I also called they guy that sold me the bike to tell him about my adventure and he was very unpleasant and told me that it's 100% my problem.

Once again, you guys rock, thank you all so much for helping out.
