Good morning.

There is a code attached to this issue. Do you have the code number? If you do not, you can have it read at a parts store for free. Once I know the code, I can help narrow the area of failure for you.

Common failures are:

1. TPS sensor.

2. TPS sensor connector damage.

3. Fuel pedal sensor and wiring.

These will need to be checked for any issues prior to replacement.
