It's not a part you can clean and make it work properly. But if it is super oily you can clean the plug/connector out with electrical contact cleaner and cross your fingers.

Good tune. Ill be singing that all day now lol.

Amy, you will need a new TPS. A q-tip and some electrical cleaner is all you can do.
