Welcome to the forum, we'll see what we can do to help. P0122 is TPS voltage low, not sure what P0120 is. P1496 is 5v output supply to low. First I'll give you a wiring diagram for the TPS and then a diagram that shows where the 5v all goes to. First disconnect the sensor and check the 5v output with a meter. If good, connect it and check it backprobing to make sure it is still good.





I'm assuming 3.3L engine.
