I've got four seperate things that have to be connected to the throttle position sensor wire so I'm wondering what should be used to get all of these components the signal they need? I'm very familiar with general wiring, but if I understand correctly, this wire sends a certain voltage based on the throttle position. When that voltage is being sent to four seperate components, I am unsure if each component is getting the necessary voltage to accurately measure the throttle position, or if the signal is being decreased?
If this is the case, what would I need to do? Or can I just hook all four wires to this single wire without worry??

chad, there is no TPS wire per say on these.
The APP uses a potentiometer type setup, but uses 3 different ranges.
You need to figure out if the stuff your adding has a voltage range and what it is. Then you can tap the APP wiring accordingly

OK, that makes sense. Is the APP wiring more than one wire? I assume than that different wires from the pedal give different signals?
I have located the purple wire running from pedal which is currently giving me the signal that I need for one of my activation switches. It looks for any change in throttle position and than activates if the change is more than x in y amount of time. Seems to be working fine so I know it must be giving a different voltage based on throttle position.
The other things that need hooked up just need to see WOT. If not WOT, not activated. If WOT, activate... The purple wire will give me a WOT volt which I believe will be sufficient to activate. However, I'm not clear if activating two different relays is possible, or if that volt signal will be decreased?
I'm thinking out loud a lot so I hope this makes sense. I'm kinda answering my own questions but still confused.
