You have a throttle actuator control system which means you don't have a cable attaching the pedal to the throttle body plate. Which means we have a wiring issue, sensor issue, or a control module issue.

We need to start with checking for codes because I suspect you have at least one that will tell us what our issue is.

Here is a guide that will help with this:

Worse case, just stop by a parts store and they can pull the codes free of charge.

Let me know what code it is and we can go from there. Thanks
