Thank you for the reply.
Would you happen to have a wiring diagram or pinout of the circuit? I cant seem to find a manual to purchase online. Also, do you have a procedure to relearn the TB? Is there a check or bench test I can perform on the TB before replacing?

E31 = throttle control fault
When you have a problem in your throttle body motor circuit it will code this code.
I would check the wiring to the throttle body and make sure there are no broken wires.
Worse case is it is internal and the throttle body will have to be replaced.
After you repair/replace you will have to relearn the TB.
