Probably because it wasn't a bad tps sensor causing the code.What is the exact code number you have?

My Haynes Repair Manual says that 7 is either TPS circuit low input or TPS circuit high input.

problem solved. the trany was 2 qts low and slipping. that was telling the pcm that the info didn't give true info and it was seeing a bad tps. reset the pcm and test drove and all is working fine.
