My car suddenly started idling rough and died. It now won't start and the only code I am getting is p1515. What is the most likely cause of this code? Where do I start? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Vehicle: 1999 Pontiac Firebird 3800 v6

P1515 Predicated VS actual TP performance

Start by checking the ETC fuse in the underhood fuse box it is listed as Elect throttle control.which is a 10 amp fuse.Mounted on the throttle body are the TPS sensor, which should be replaced there is a TSB about this condition where a intermittent TPS cause a intermittent chuggle with no DTC set.
