Default Very high idle

This morning on cold start up, my 22 ram 1500 with a 5.7, idled at 4k RPMs, I gave the gas pedal a quick blep and the pedal doesnt wk. I shut the truck off. I checked all connections at the TB and all are tight. I have the truck at the dealer now. Does anyone know what i might expect to be the issue?

Bad throttle control motor, or pedal position sensor, or wiring for either/both.
