According to the Helm manual, this is not to be done. If the TP sensor needs replacing, you replace the whole throttle body.

So why'd you need to ask?
Let us know if it works. Honda must have had a reason for not swapping sensors.

X, it does work. The issue is that Honda rivets them in place and the TPS has a max min voltage. If you re-install the TPS sensor on another TB, you will need to re-calibrate this max min voltage.
