Don't have a scan but I tried disconnecting the battery for a few minutes and that didn't work so its been sitting for like an hour. Or so now gonna go back out and see what happens

So I've reset the system had the battery unplugged over an hour to clear the codes of it did clear them they came right back so I'm hoping the pedal sensor is the problem but won't know for awhile just gonna go back to driving my 02 bonnie ssei for now

Well put in a new/used but good pedal sensor and same issue so does that mean I need a new throttle body?

Possible causes
- Dead or weak battery
- Faulty Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) module
- Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) module harness is ope or shorted
- Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) module circuit poor electrical connection
- Check Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) module connector for water

this part is on the TB check the wires to it, they bake in the exhaust heat.
