Default WTF! a/c and ses issue...

When I. Am driving with my a/c on my ses light comes on with a tps code. After driving for a little while and maybe 2 ignition/drive cycles without a/c it clears itself. Replaced the tps 2 times and that didn't fix it. I think its the tune but when I talked to the guy who tunes it; he says its probably something mechanical. I have been watching the voltages and checking the tps on scan tool but see nothing wrong. Anyone have any helpful advice? Or have heard of this?

Measure / scan TPS voltages - not % - at idle and WOT (key on, engine
off, unless you like listening to the rev limited chop) and get back to us.
Do it in both A/C cases, on & off. But I guess on might need the motor
running. Does the code pop after WOT, or without going WOT?

I believe it is a p0121 code but I will double check tomorrow at work. And it come on without going wot. Also when the code comes on the trans goes into a predetermined shift table and the car doesn't have much power... basically like limp home mode. I have been watching/scanning the voltage and not % and am not finding anything.

it is a p0121 code...
Tps voltage at idle with a/c off is 0.71
Tps voltage at idle with a/c on is 0.71
At wot tps voltage is 4.33
I had the scanner and was driving and the code came up. The scanner I have has code trigger recording... there was no change in tps voltage! It happened at idle and I can go before the code and after and no change! ... 0.71 the whole time
