Default What wire to use for TPS and window switch?

I have a Nitrous Outlet window switch and a 06 C6 what wire do you guys recomend I tap into for the TPS signal?

Info I have so far:

The TP is at the throttle body
TP 1 = pin 65 dark green signal is above 4v at idle and below 1v at WOT
TP 2 = pin 63 purple is below 1v at idle and above 4v at WOT

The APP is the accelerator pedal position sensor
APP 1 = pin 29 dark blue is below 1v at idle and above 4v at WOT
APP 2 = pin 32 light blue is .5v at idle and above 2v at WOT


I was also told: Tps should be the purple wire (Falling Voltage)

but 1v at idle and 4v at WOT sounds like rising to me

Can anyone confirm the correct wire/wires I can use?

TIA

you should be able to use either of these, as the switch will work with either rising or falling voltage

The blue wire is the wire you need to use...we just finished a tnt 100 shot on a 04 cts v ls6. The blue gave us a increase voltage reading we needed for the rpm switch box we used.any more problems let me know! good luck...solder your connections!!

Where is that wire?

I used the green wire:TP 1 = pin 65 dark green signal is above 4v at idle and below 1v at WOT

I set the window switch but have not tested it yet.

not sure how that will work? I used the blue with no issues but it may work. The blue wire maxed out at 4.3 volts on our car. let me know what happens and good luck...the hit is worth all the work!

The TPAS will work on either the rising (0v@idle 5v@WOT) or falling (5v@idle 0v@WOT)

It saves the votage the box sees at idle and WOT and activates the kit accordingly.

Are you sure you don't have your APP wires backwards?
I just checked my dark blue wire which reads .4vat idle and 2.1v at wot.
Didn't check the light blue one yet.
