Help!!!!

Alright guys right down to business....

I did the tps led test (because I got a crazy idle problem), I got it adjusted to the point where only one light is one but

now the problem is, when I start the car it rev's up to 3k (aws) but then it just dies in a few seconds completely

it never did this before?!?!111

and one thing I should mention, when I adjusted the tps, I did it while the engine was cold, will that affect anything at all? thx!

Yes it will, you have to do the test when the car is at temp. If not, you screwed up the idle even more with the engine system trying to warm itself up.

alrighty I did the test again, this time the car was warmed up (a little bit less than half on the guage)

I attempted to adjust the tps again, and realized that I had two bad tps sensor's haha

Looks like I'm going to have to get a new tps from mazda or something

thanks for the input guys!
