I don’t know if you’ll harm anything but you won’t accomplish anything either.
The sensor is grounded through the ECM (computer) and this ground circuit is shared with a few other sensors; so if the ground were bad you would be setting other codes along with the TPS.
You’ve got three wires at the TPS.
Gray: reference voltage from the ECM approximately 5Volt.
Black: sensor ground.
Dark blue: signal return.
At closed throttle you should have approximately .5 (1/2) of a volt and at wide-open throttle you should have approximately 4.5 volts on the signal return circuit.
During the transition from closed to wide-open throttle there should be an even consistent change in voltage in relation to how fast or slow you move the throttle.
