Just did this morning and the connections looked like new,no corrosion or moisture.Is there anything in the stop light switch circuit that opens the tps to raise the idle like the power steering system has?

For me it was the throttle position sensor. It reoccurred 3 times. Coincidentally enough it would happen when I washed my car, i'm not sure if that had anything to do with it but after the third time they brought in engineers to take a look at my car and its been alright since.

It was all covered under warranty, good luck man!

Thinking back on it now both times this is happend involved me washing my car and rain.
I hope its not the wiring problem that i read about.

Sorry for the OT. Just curious about this timing belt issue as I've never heard/read this before. Care to elaborate? Thanks.
