Default NEED ADVICE! SUPER CONFUSED!!!!!

so my car has an idle issue. it idles high sometimes and low at other times. its also jerking real bad when getting on/off the throttle. I checked the cel and got a code 7. I tested the tps and its reading .5 idle and 5wot. so my tps seems to be working. I also replaced the map sensor. am I missing something here? should I still replace it? I'm stumped. TIA!

i would try and still replace the tps sensor and also are you plugging the sensors up right?? cause i've had people think the map sensor plug was the tps sensor plug and the tps plug the map plug...

the plugs are on the correct sensors

I'm just totally stumped on this one. ill go ahead and try replacing the tps. I'm just confused as to why its would be malfunctioning if it seems like its properly calibrated.
