Edit: BTW my method of getting the pin in there was to disconnect the tps and put the pin inside the harness and then reconnect it. Took some work but I finally got it on the middle wire without it disconnecting when I reconnected it.

Sorry i didnt get back with you right away.

Well if your getting 4.34V then thats not the correct wire. It would read that near WOT(wide open throttle). If you want, tomorrow i can look up the specs for everything including what voltages you should be getting and the specific wire colors for you jeep. Just tell me what year it is. Or maybe the new one will solve it. I was just trying to help you diagnose it before you just start throwing parts at it hah

Sorry to bring this back from teh dead, but did replacing the faulty TPS restore your cruise control issue? My cruise died over the weekend and I also showed a P0123 code... Thanks!
