Another update....... all previously crimped wires have been individually soldered. Even moved a back ground thinking it might help lol.
LITTERALLY NOTHING HAS CHANGED. guess it's time to take engine out and replace harness? Who knows at this point. Might look for a donor car to put engine in. F U, GM. Garbage electrical issues. Stupid. Im mad

something doesn't make sense, you tested each wire for ohm's/ground/voltage?
tested each pin between the pcm and throttle body?

No just visual inspections. Did some research and am now going to check each wire Individually, ohms, voltage, and whatever else. Thanks for the help, I will keep posting updates. Hopefully I can pin point it!

The cable from the pedal sensor to the TAC module has a continuous electrical path. Same for the cable from the TAC module (right side) all the way to the TPS connection. Going to check the other 8 wires coming from that TAC module cable to the fuse box.

Just finished checking and I have flow all the way thru to the fuse block. Noticed a little dirt in the fuse box right where the cables connect. Just going to clean it real good and put everything back. If that doesn't change anything I will move on to checking grounds for continuous flow. After that I'll plug the battery back in and check voltage. Then idk lol

Also this is what my OBD port looks like. Thought this truck had a CAN network but im not sure. That's the first thing I wanted to test. Based off the port, I can't test it thru there.

follow the harness for the obd port back and see what's up there should be more than 3 wires
It has four wires that I followed and they just tie into the harness then connect I to the driver side fuse box. I guess I should test continuity? Or keep digging. Seems like it should have more then 4 pins/wires in the OBD port

*Red arrow is the 4 wires from the OBD port
*Green arrow is the OBD port

*forgot to mention that the previous owner had a tracker that was spliced Into the ground and voltage wire of the OBD. Took that out but the throttle response issue didn't change

No not too my knowledge. Its a 5.3 LM7. When I took it apart it looked pretty dirty and stock.

Thanks for letting me know, I felt like I should have those to test it. Not sure what to do now lol thanks again for the help
