Default TSC/ASR Cruise Module behind battery

The shop that is working on my car says the throttle pedal is resisting a bit when they are driving the car and they noticed the unit with the 2 throttle cables going in and 1 going out to the TB is rattling.

Now my car obviously has TCS, so what all is going on in that module? Is it safe to drive the car back to my house (8 miles) so I can install my 12-bolt and then have them look into replacing the module next week? I have not seen it in person yet so I am not exactly sure what is going on, but it sounds like the little motor inside that module is kicking the throttle cable even when the tires are not slipping.

Do you think just turning off TCS, it would eliminate the problem temporarily? Can I disconnect one of those cable inputs? Any suggestions just so I can get the car home, install the 12-bolt and do the 250 miles break in would be great
