Need some info on throttle position sensor
I have a 2001 C240 and I'm having a problem with my TPS. My car accelerates on its own. I parked it, and the engine revs up very high. So I unplugged my pedal and started the car up and it idled fine. Then I plugged the pedal back in with the car still running and it reved up to 3000 rpm. I pressed the pedal and it had a delayed response but it reved very high again. Which sensor should I replace
