Unhappy FML!!!

well today i worked a late shift and upon leaving at around 11pm i go to start my truck up and it cranks up and about turns over then just dies and continues to do that every time you attempt to start the truck or it will just crank and do nothing. The gryphon is showing me all error codes for throttle position sensor,throttle pedal sensor and everything to do with the throttle and sensor.
Im guessing it is a bad TPS? anyone have any input before i go changing that to see if thats the problem? this is just a pain in the royal @$$....any and all help is greatly appreciated.

I would check your tps wiring first. Make sure you don't have any exposed wires. I did in one spot, not enough to make an issue but enough to worry me. I used some liquid electrical tape I love that stuff. My issue was near the plug under the hood. I imagine if it got much worse I'd be going no where

From what i saw everything looked normal on the wiring and nothing changed...the programmer just threw like 4 error codes that wont clear all with tps or throttle issues
