Default Check engine light after 160 kph???

Once i pass 160 kph i always get a check engine light and the car starts shaking...the code is #7 which is the tps sensor...after i restart the car the light goes away....what could be cause this to happen only after i pass a certain speed?

well, if it is the TPS, it might be because the voltage isn't consistent and it is fluctuating. test the voltage. it should be .5v when the throttle is closed and 5v at WOT. if not, switch it out for another TPS.

both at closed throttle and WOT?

did you check to see if it is throwing another code immediately after the 7 code?
