Question ls swap problem ( PLEASE HELP ) if you can

Ok , i know there are people who really know what they are doing on here. And i really need some help. I have been trying to solve this issue for about 6 months now. i have a stock 5.3 with a ls1 intake and 12555894 injectors, and the car will start. and idles ok but when giving gas will fall on its face between 2200 and 2500 . somewhere in there. thought it was the tps so i bought a new one. did the same thing. so i started checking the 3 wires. ground has good ground. 5v wire has 5v. and signal wire goes from .76 to 4.51 wot so everything looked good. I bought a scanner to read live data and noticed the tps sensor reads 0.0 the whole time on scanner , no matter if car is running or not. never changes when throttle is giving or anthing. so im scratching my head hard. every where ive looked on here and other sites i havent seen anyone that has had the same problem. anyone got any ideas please? thank you in advace..

What PCM is being used? Programmed for cable or drive by wire?

Red and blue the one that u can program for either. And yeah its programed for cable. And fuel pressure is at 58 to 60 psi. I've moved it up and down to see if that mattered but no luck.

have you tried TPS relearn?
Key off.
Unplug TPS.
Turn key on for 5 seconds.
Key off.
Plug in TPS.
Turn key on. Closed throttle should be 0%

So unplug tps
Turn key on but don't start for 5 secs
Turn key back off
Plug tps in
And then should I turn key to on without starting
Or start it?

Didn't tune myself sent it to a guy in the net. And even asking him today he says yes. Would it idle fine if it wasnt? Before I started messing with it. It would idle ok and just like bog out somewhere around 2200.

Yeah. Harness is stock. Worked to stand alone. All un needed wires removed. And all 3 wires go where they are suposed to. Checking from sensor all the way back to computer. I'm just mind blown I can't figure this out. Probably somthing so easy I'm overlooking it. That would be my luck. Any ideas?

Are you sure the TPS signal wire is pinned into the correct spot on the PCM?
