Pssst...here's two things that have never been mentioned in the history of this forum: Codes? IDL contact closed?

Redacted per Title 18 USC Section 798
As CRE said it's a switch in the TPS. Supposed to be closed when the throttle is closed. With it open the idle speed control and stabilization systems won't operate. It you don't have a code 51 it's working so forget about it.

ok, on my way to work tonight (20 min drive) it ran good, the idle bounced a couple times randomly...not a lot though.....now on my way home the rpms didnt bounce at all but when I got to a stop sign the rpms bounced twice and the car died...then wouldnt start, then after about 15 min the car started....got home quickly, checked the codes...and nothing. Does anyone have any clue what could be going on I really have no clue at this point. any help would be great.
