This thread is turning really stupid.

You have one and only one issue to deal with right now, and that is the TPS.

I already told you what you have to do, but I'm feeling generous, so I'll tell you again.

There is an orange wire that leaves the ECM at the 60 pin connector at pin #26. From there, it goes to a junction where it splits. One wire goes to your BAP sensor, and the other goes to your EGR valve position sensor. From there, it continues on to the TPS. You need to trace this wire, and find out where it is that you cut it, and put it back together.

If it were me, I would backprobe pin 26, turn the key on, and see if there was 5 volts. If there wasn't, the ECM is junk, and needs to be thrown out. If there is 5 volts there, I would check the wire at the BAP sensor, etc., until I found the break in the wire. You could also splice into the wire at the 60 pin and run it right to the TPS.

FORGET EVERYTHING ELSE AND FIX YOUR TPS.

Take care,
~Chris
