I just replaced the TPS and the car was running normal for a couple of weeks then the other day it started to show the same problem again, low rpm, and check engine light is on. I'm guessing if it's not the TPS then it might be the electrical connector which could be loose because trying to tighten it fixes the problem temporarily. If it is the connector that needs to be replaced, where can i find the part online so that i can order it and replace it by myself?

Hi,

Because of the model year, chances are you won't find a direct fit online or at a parts store and will need to get it from a dealer. Have you checked to see if it a loose or damaged pin in the connector or even corrosion?

Let me know.
