Just go to your local auto parts store and get one. They should all work just fine

Re: tps original or aftermarket please help!

The parts store TPS works fine. However, I usually make a point to buy AC Delco sensors as I find they are more reliable than the rest.

Nobody makes an aftermarket TPS in the sense that it operates differently than a stock one.
