Looked up the code. Means fuel trim malfunction bank 2. Switch your o2 sensors out and see what happens. If the code changes to p0171, then the o2 sensor is bad. If it doesn't, you need to check for misfires or exhaust leaks. Google 'fuel trim malfunction bank 2' for more info.

Check engine light on with the TPS code. replaced TPS and pig tail and it checked out OK with volt meter. The light still comes back on with the TPS code

Check engine light comes on and off, these are indication that there is some error code stored in your vehicles ECM. The engine module computer needs to be scanned. These will give the code and as per the error code the further problem can be detected and confirmed. The engine light indicator blinks or remains steady on dash when engine computer noticed any problem with any engine electrically operated components.
