A code P0121 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
TPS has intermittent open or short internally
Harness is rubbing and causing an open or short in the wiring
Bad connection at the TPS
Bad PCM (less likely)
Water or corrosion in connector or sensor
OBD-II Trouble Code: P0121 Throttle Position Sensor/Switch A Circuit Range/Performance Problem
You said you already replaced the Throttle Position Sensor, so skip the things related to that. Check your wiring, Start at the grounds, then look through the wiring harness and make sure no wires have rubbed through. It shouldn't be your pcm, so I would skip even checking that for now.

I will let you all know what I or they find out.
