P0122 tps

I have a 2000 EX D16Y8 5-speed and I recently had low idling problems. I did research and changed the throttle position sensor and the low idle stopped but now it seems kind of high (around 1200-1500) I have also erased the P0122 code multiple times but it keeps coming back. Does this have anything to do with the high idle or what is the issue? Thanks.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Sounds like the TPS is misadjusted. Get a scanner that shows live data.......adjust TPS while reading voltage output on a scanner live data display....set to 0.49v@closed throttle.


Then clear codes, disconnect battery, wait several minutes with doors open, reconnect battery, start and warm up engine, relearn idle.
