    Hey,
    Anyone had experience with fixing these codes? I researched and found it has to do the the TPS, but I get conflicting information on how to fix it.

    So.. quick write up
    Overall time: 48-55 minutes
    Skill level: 1-8* ( depending on prescription of your glasses )

    Text version:
    1) spend 45 minutes taking things off / looking for sensor
    2) open hood, see sensor
    3) take 3 minutes to replace

    Steps with pictures!
    Step 1 - find sensor ( ~ 45 minutes)

    Step 2 - remove tie wrap (<1 minute )

    Step 3 - remove sensor (< 1 minute )

    Step 6 - clip back to bracket (< 1 minute )

    Step 7 - reinstall other items that mysteriously came off car (~ 5 minutes )

    Did that fix your issue? Because while that sensor I linked for you is technically a TPS it's for the vcts. There's always the throttle body and the pedal sensor too. So curious and hoping I steered you in the right direction.

    I’ll let you know, it hasn’t acted up yet.

    it was still plugged in, so it’s sending a dummy signal?

    Video is so short I can't tell what's up...seen other threads that sensor although it's called the TPS, its to do with the VCTS not actually the throttle the one you replaced...sorry.

    Have you taken off your throttle body and given it a clean? Check the connection going to the throttle body itself
    make sure that's seated well, with no bent pins perhaps give it a clean and then some dielectric grease.

    I think I clicked/uploaded the wrong video ‍

    I haven’t taken anything apart, the throttle body isn’t “easy” to get too since it was relocated to BFE ;)

    I got some logs to upload when I get a chance, just got home from parading it around on a rollback
