Whe you installed the TPS did you adjust it so that it had 1 volt with just Ing switch on.

You should have grey/red wire and grey/white wire on the the back side of the TPS connector harness. Remove the throtle body. With the switch off, insert stright pins down beside these two wires, connect a volt meter to the stright pins, neg side to grey/red and pos to the grey/white, turn the switch on . Loosen the TPS screws and rotate it untill you have a reading of 1 volt. This is how the Haynes Manual says the TPS should be set up. I had to do this a while back after installing a new TPS. You may have to play with the stright pins to get a good connection. Hope this helps!!
