Usually when the tps code comes on the tps is bad. It is located on the throttle body. It looks like it is riveted on but they are actually screws. If you cut a slit in the heads of the "rivets" you use a flathead screwdriver to just screw them out. You adjust the new one with an ohm meter. It is tested at wide open throttle and no throttle. It needs to be at a certain resistance when at both locations. I cant remember what the numbers are though. Hope this helps a little. I dont usually screw with vtec so I dont know much about the other code.

Regarding code 22, first check whether the engine oil is low.

Unbolt the Vtec Solenoid and you will see the screan on the inside, remove it with the rubber seal carefully and spray it down with parts cleaner.
