The code sets when battery voltage is low. Check all your fuses especially your ETCS fuse in the engine compartment. Also make sure battery is good and alternator is charging properly. Here is a link to show you how to check the alternator.

You would need an advance scanner to check the throttle operation. Verify you have a battery power at the green wire at the throttle body. If you have power then your throttle body has most likely failed. If the battery was dead make sure it is fully charge and reset the codes and recheck.
