First, if you don't have a FSM (factory service manual), invest in one. You can order one on the www.ideal-z.com web site.
You need to test the tps to see if it works, more than likley it is out of adjustment or one of the pins inside the cover is bent.
The tests for the tps and all the FI subsystems are in the engine fuel section of the FSM.
