Why does my help truck have high idle?

Help truck has high idle!!! Cleaned the throttle body and went to put it back on and start it with out the intake attached to the throttle body. It idled funny so I shut it off. Connected the intake hose back in and it idles at 3000 rpms! It won’t go back down. I don’t know what to do. This is the first electrical engine I have had.

Can a bad throttle position sensor cause idle surging?

Idle surging can be caused due to other issues in the car, but if it happens in conjunction with other throttle position sensor symptoms, the culprit is often the TPS.
