I had something very similar happen. I got a new TPS and “relearn” it. Problem was gone. But now everytime I take the battery out I have to “relearn” it.
I’m no expert. But first I’d try the relearn process first.

Key off.
Unplug TPS.
Turn key on for 5 seconds.
Key off.
Plug in TPS.
Turn key on. Closed throttle should be 0%.
