Default 88DX CRX TPS code, replaced still throwing code

I have a 88 crx DX DPFI. It has been throwing code 7 for the TPS, so I went and picked up a new TB with the TB and replaced it. It is still throwing the code after driving. I know it is possible for both TPS to be bad, but wondering if anyone had any ideas of something else it could be throwing that code.

It is also throwing code 4 and 8 for the Crank Pos. Sensor, and TDC sensor which are is the throttle body. Is it possible these are ran in a series and because those 2 codes are being thrown it could be throwing the light for the TPS

did you do a reset on the ecu?
