Question Keep throwing tps code?????

i keep throwing the throttle positioning code. So last week i replaced it and now this week it did it again. seems like it usually comes on when sitting in traffic with the ac on, but maybe thats just me. But not sure why..only thing i can think of os maybe a tps re wire where you replace the pins. ANY IDEAS?? THANKS Chase

probably overdone on the bumpstop causing the blade to open to far... if you have the bumpstop mod done. Just a thought.

Check the wires leading to the TPS. They can be dry rotted or something like that and trip that light.
