Which Sensor is this? (pic)

Can anyone identify the sensor circled in red? It's bolted on the side of the throtle body and I've had high idle problems recently and found that sensor to be unplugged. Hope it fixed my problem.

Come on man. Just hop in the car and test drive it for 10 minutes. Let us know. It will add to my pool of knowledge about defective or unplugged TPS.

That's the thing you unplug to adjust your idle (there is a plastic screw on the TB to adjust the idle)
