Did the code reading problem get fixed ? Knowing the codes is the key to the fix, and it'll have to be done if you ever need an emissions cert.

Yea was a bad fuse is why I couldn't get the scanner to work. Code was this tps sensor

That looks like a TPS to me, but it might not be the part for your make and model.

New one comes with screws, you'll have to drill out rivets. Another way for dealership/manufacturer to screw the common DIY'er.
