Is it possible to glue the needle back in providing that I can find the exact location it was pointing at?

i believe the IAC will, but the TPS will not. I'm not sure if they have the same in/out signal though...

Can someone possibly confirm my suspicions? This morning while trying to start my jeep it wasn't turning over and making clicking noises. At first I thought the starter went out. After work this afternoon Tried to start it again and the battery is completely drained. Is this the alternator that drained my battery?

Jump start your car. Remove the positive terminal from the battery, if your engine dies your alternator is bad, if the jeep keeps going its your battery or you have a short draining your battery

Then it's either a bad battery or you didn't use big enough cables to jump it.

I will. There was a clicking just for a sec, then nothing. Also it seems that the battery is now charging just enough to lock the door or turn the key. Then it dies completely again. Almost instantly.
