Yesterday my truck's idle was actin really funny, so I suspected the TPS and sure enough it eventually threw a check engine light and went to Autozone, I think the code was something like 124, which said the Throttle Position Sensor was receiving too much voltage. It did not act up in 2 other trips of driving it around. I know I could just replace the whole TPS, which is just under $30, but I do not want to replace it if that is not the reason this voltage increase is occuring.
If you have any ideas of a potential other causes please let me know, and if a replacement TPS is most likely the fix, then I will be purchasing one and putting it on Friday.
Side note, my engine threw another code which it had thrown about 2 years ago, which was like 341 I think, and it has to do with Octane Pin or something like that. I was told this was a dealer service which they made an error on and didn't do. I was wondering if anyone had more info or a clarification on this.
Thank you for your time and help.
