For the moment, reset and see if it comes back.

Any drivability issues?

Is that the little thing attached to the side of the butterfly on the throttle body? If it is, I have a spare one I could chuck in the post for diagnosing purposes. It works fine on my car, but just changed the TB for a bigger one, so is now surplus to requirements.
