"Idle Position Sensor"...same as "Throttle Position Sensor"?

Hi all,

The SES light came on and I got a code pulled that read "Idle Position Sensor." Now my 2001 won't hold idle and just dies...which means it's undrivable.

Anyway, I've searched for Idle Position Sensor and all that comes up is Throttle Position Sensor. Are these the same part? If so, the sensor looks to be under $100...I thought it would run closer to $300 like everything else Nissan. How hard/easy is it to replace or get to? I'm no stranger to turning wrenches, just no experience with this sensor.

Thanks!
Eric
