tps problem i have been having issues with my throtle position sensor. the car is setting a p0122 code so i replaced the sensor, 3 times, and still the code exists. yesterday i went to the local parts store to reset the code. first of all, when i read the code on the scanner, its on there twice. how can that be? anyhow, i erased the 2 codes and figured i was good to go. NOT! as soon as i started the car, it was back on there. it was like i couldnt even erase it. so i hooked the scanner up and tried it again. this time i read the codes, and erased the codes. so before i disconnect the scanner i check for codes again. THERE BACK ON THERE ! wtf! im baffled. any1 have a clue whats going on?

well guys, i checked for voltage at the connector and i had 5v. so i went to the parts store to get another sensor. i had been getting aftermarket sensors because oem wasnt in stock. anyways, i finally found a gm tps sensor. installed the sensor and holly cow! tps problem solved! i will never buy freekin aftermarket again!
