Standard Ignition TH454 Throttle Position Sensor

Throttle Position Sensor for Ford 2004 Applications

The Standard Ignition TH454 throttle position sensor restores accurate throttle angle signal transfer to the ECU for consistent fuel delivery and engine response. It is a direct-fit replacement for select 2004 Ford trucks and vans, including Ford E-350 Club Wagon, Excursion, F-250 Super Duty, and F-350 Super Duty with 3-pin terminal applications.

Key Features

• Direct-fit throttle position sensor for select 2004 Ford applications
• Female connector with plug-in connection for straightforward replacement
• 3-terminal design with male pins for proper electrical communication
• Helps restore accurate throttle valve angle input to the vehicle computer
• Allows replacement of the sensor without replacing the full throttle body assembly
• Built with durable materials for service use in emission control systems

Detailed Description

The Standard Ignition TH454 is an emission control sensor engineered to report throttle position accurately to the engine control unit. By restoring the signal from the throttle valve to the ECU, this throttle position sensor supports smoother throttle response, stable engine performance, and efficient fuel management. It is a practical replacement choice for 2004 Ford E-350 Club Wagon, Excursion, F-250 Super Duty, and F-350 Super Duty models that use a 3-pin terminal setup. This part cross-references 4C3Z9B989A and 5S16517 for the same application. Standard Ignition TH454 is built to replace only the failed sensor, helping reduce repair time and cost compared with replacing the entire throttle body.

Common Problems This Part Can Help Solve

• Erratic or delayed throttle response
• Incorrect throttle angle signal to the ECU
• Rough acceleration or inconsistent engine performance
• Fuel economy loss caused by inaccurate throttle input
• Check engine light concerns related to throttle position sensor faults

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and vehicle application before installation. This TH454 uses a female plug-in connector with 3 male pin terminals, so matching the electrical interface is important for proper operation. Inspect the throttle body connector and wiring for corrosion or damage before installing the new sensor. After installation, clear diagnostic trouble codes and confirm throttle signal operation with a scan tool if required.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition builds this throttle position sensor with quality construction and robust materials to meet the demands of professional service work. The design focuses on accurate throttle valve angle communication and dependable replacement performance for emission control repair.
