MC305,
Since your ECM is reporting an error code, it may be operating in a less than ideal mode. You should repair the problem, either the sensor or the wiring, then diagnose any remaining problems. The functioning MAT may solve the problem, or may not. Idle rpm is under the direct control of the ECM through the IAC stepper motor, and relies on inputs to determine the correct idle RPM.
