I just began having the same exact issue about two weeks ago, where I found myself stranded on the side of the road at an idle with no throttle response. The VSC , TRAC, and CEL all turned on at the moment I lost throttle. I cycled the ignition once by shutting off and starting the car, and it seemed to fix the problem. After getting home and doing a few test drives, the same throttle cut-out issue was happening under acceleration and load.
After some quick searching I decided to order a new 4 prong TPS from Aisan part#(89452-35030). This is the cheapest way around changing the TPS without changing the whole Throttle Body on a 2001-2002.
All of my check engine lights went off, and the issue seemed to be fixed for about a week, until it came back this evening on the drive home.
My only other idea for this very specific issue is a throttle body replacement, possibly a used one off of a junked 2001 SR5.
I am getting a P1120 code which my Blue Driver says: Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/ Coolant Flow control ValvePosition Sensor Circuit
Does this mean I should look at the PPS now? Not sure If I could even get one of those
Any updates at all since doing it in 2021 would be GREATLY appreciated!
thanks!!

Sorry to hear you’re having this problem! After replacing the throttle body, the power loss never returned. I had a code about a month later (but no power loss) and that was it. I haven’t had any issues since and it’s been about 14 months.
