disconnect plug at TPS. Unscrew two screws holding it on. Replace with new TPS. Put in screws. Plug in to harness. Should be close on voltage. If able to check make sure the voltage is as close to 1.0 volts with throttle closed.
very easy job.

Here is some info on the TPS.
I personally would not sweat trying to dial the setting exact if it does not want to (.90-1.10V should be fine, IMHO). if you experience issues later, you can play with it and get it dialed in right at 0.97 volts or whatever you choose.

good luck.
