Check engine
2001 Xj with i6 auto
odb says my code is P0122
“throttle position sensor A circuit low input.”
BUT I replaced the tps and the iac a month ago and have reset the check engine indicator several times, but it keeps coming back when I accelerate heavily.
Today, I cleaned the carbon out of the throttle body....now all nice and shiny. Reset the code....drove for 5 minutes. Check engine came back on under heavy acceleration.
in addition to the tps and iac, I also replaced the injectors, coil-pack, plugs, and thermostat. I doubt any of that is related, but figured I’d mention it.
anybody have any thoughts?
thanks.

Word of experience; Mopar works best for ALL sensors! You pay more, but can expect them to last longer than any other.
