Tps... Again!!!

[SoNew]

So I purchased this car (99GST) about 4 months ago and the second day I had it it popped a CEL, and it ended up being the TPS... and now tonight it was idling funny, really low. And BAM CEL came on and guess what... TPS AGAIN!!!. idk what to do, theyre like $100... any advice?

Did you replace it last time.

 

[SoNew]

Did you check if the last tps was bad? Pick up a good used so you don't have to spend a fortune.

I assume you're getting P0120. Did you adjust the throttle position switch to open at correct position when you installed your TPS's (old and new)?

This one has that same 2g throttle position switch adjustment procedure in post 1 but also includes the 2g idle TPS output voltage (signal) adjustment procedure in post 3:
