I don't see why they wouldn't sell it separately. Go to Majestic Honda
and get their number and call them up and order. It's cheaper than the usual Honda dealerships. Or like Vin said, try www.car-parts.com.

sometimes when they go bad,if you have an auto tranny, you wont be able to get out of park unless you open that little box that sits next to the handle and place your key in there and turn it, pain in the ***. Also your tranny will mess up.

The TPS is used to control rpms. Its controlled the the ECU. The ECU tells the TPS where to set the rpms at. For instance, when the CTS(coolant temp sensor) reads that the coolant is cold, it tells the ECU that the engine needs to warm up. So the ECU tells the TPS to run at a higher rpm until the coolant temp warms up, then start reducing the rpms until normal operating temp is reached.
Sometimes they get gummed up and can be cleaned using a carb cleaner thats safe for rubber seals...

you could try a auto salvage place... I got a rear bumper cheep after someone hit my car in a parking lot... they had almost every part except form the drivers fender back to the gas door.
