Default High idle

Any thoughts on what would cause a sudden, consistent idle of around 1200? By sudden, I mean the problem just showed up one day, and has been around since. No problem with cruise control surging.

10-4. Just checked the voltage on the TPS, and it is running high. Probably would read high no matter what was causing the idle to be high, but we'll give it a go. Thanks.
