Default Check Engine Light On

So i recently used the OBD II Code Reader to dignose my CEL. The code read P122, which is the TPS (throttle position sensor A circuit low input). The problem with my s2000 is my car intermittently rough idles and sometimes stalls while at a stop. I kinda looked it up and it seems like i have to change my throttle body sensor. I have already took apart and cleaned the IAC, and that made my check engine light go away, but came on again after sometime.

Any suggestions or comments i should do?

thanks

If cost is the concern look up the OmniPower TPS DIY. I would find it, but quite frankly I've been , this dubstep is great, and this sites search kills a high faster than the cops. Real Talk.

A better well to search is to use google.
Type in -
"site:s2ki.com" before the search word.

Like so:

This assumes all pages are indexed by Google.
