Default Help!! TSP code and O2's

Here is my problem My car Idle is moving up and down on its own coming to a stop. It drops to about 4 or 500 rpms almost killing the engine. After a few moments of idling it returns to a normal 800rpm's. Check engine light came on...My obd reader is giving TPS sensor circuit low and also P0131 and P0151 O2's. Sesor is brand new...came with the new throttle body...2 weeks old. Also My ASR will cut off by itself and will not let me turn it on. Has anyone ever had this problem and know whats going on?

make sure the wires (tps) are pushed all the way in..disconnect the battery for about 15 minutes, 2 minutes might be enough, but i like 15 better.reconnect bat, start/drive and see if it comes back on did you disconnect the bat after installing TB w/ new TPS. if this dont work then replace tps with old one... 02's could be giving codes cause of TPS.....
