TPS v's 0.00 ???????what gives !!!!!

ok here we go previously i have trouble with my tps connector the wires had corrosion, and were messing up my voltage output making the motor run poorly and tps volt's maxxing out at 1.8mv at WOT. so i removed the connector from the harness and spliced in one of those tps enhancers so i could use the good end on it to replace my old connector. well know when i hooked up my scanner to adjust my tps. it shows i have know tps voltage output ! but the tps enhancer has 2 led bulbs, 1 red and 1 green to show when it doing its job, and sure enough at 3/4's the green bulb lites up , telling me its doing its job, however i still show no tps volt's ...??? any suggestion as to where i can get a new connector would help or other possible causes. the tps was working prior, and the enhancer was also off of another vehicle, so i belive my problem lies somewhere in the area where i spliced the wires.....HELP !!!!

Car: yep
Engine: uhuh
Transmission: sure does
I would get an ORIGINAL harness end and splice that back in the way it was originally.

I'm not familliar with the "enhancer".

Make sure you have 5v reference signal to the TPS.
