The codes are for the throttle actuator control and another with the engine harness. Already cleaned the connectors for the ecm and pcm. May have to trace back into the others?

P2135 and P2176 are my codes. Will a cleaner like seafoam help the problem if it's carbon build up? It has 129000 miles on it.

Any suggestions on which cleaner is best? And if the issue isn't resolved, I will need to track down the voltage problem? At what point do I take it to a auto mechanic?

So for the voltage problem using crc would most likely not fix? Thats most likely the grounding or corrosion issue with the harness?

I took apart the throttle body and cleaned it. It wasn't that dirty. Once I was done the car had no problems for 4 days a record and then when idling in a drive thru it did what it's always done and loss of engine power and such. So if I replace it I should be good?
