Dave-Have you checked that the TPS connector contacts are fully seated in the connector insulator?
Automotive and motorcycle connectors typically have connectors crimped (or soldered) to wires, which are pushed into the connector insulator from the rear. The contact has one or two clips/prongs/barbs which snap into a retention feature of each cavity.
During the assembly process, if each wire/contact is not fully pushed into each cavity, the contact "floats", removing pressure on the mating surfaces.
This can be discovered by (a) pulling on a wire and finding the contact is pulled out or (b) pushing on a wire and hearing a snap/pop as the clip seats.
An unseated contact can cause repeat intermittent issues.
