What are the symptoms of a bad throttle position sensor? I'm having some serious issues lately with the old cityx and i'm starting to wonder if the sensor itself has shit the bed.

It would hopefully throw an error code. After that you would need to connect ECMspy to see if it is moving properly as you turn the throttle. Alternate is to use a multimeter and measure the resistance while you very slowly turn the throttle.
