★ Top Answer
The throttle position sensor in the 2003 Cadillac Escalade is located on the right side of the engine, attached to the throttle body beneath the air filter housing. This sensor plays a crucial role in regulating the amount of air taken in by the engine. Normally positioned on the butterfly spindle or shaft, it directly controls the throttle's movement direction. The throttle body may experience failure due to the accumulation of debris, carbon, and dirt within the air flow housing, a condition known as coking. This buildup obstructs airflow, leading to an imbalance and potential issues with the throttle body's performance.
