The car starts and idles fine until the shift lever is engaged. Then the idle goes really high when put in park or neutral. Got a key code error of 24 saying the throttle position sensor is at fault. I changed the TPS and still have the same problem and the same error code. The manuals description of the error is somewhat ambiguous saying voltage is either to high or to low to the TPS. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

It needs to be tested manually using a digital voltmeter right at the sensor. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
