    2008 Prius ~170000 mi ICE stops running, P2102 code (Throttle Actuator Motor Circuit Low) replaced throttle body, cleaned MAF with correct cleaner. runs fine for awhile. Throws the P2102 code and cleaning will not get it running again. (I am getting tired of calling the tow truck)
    Think it might be the electrical connectors. Will clean them tomorrow. Other suggestions are welcome.
    Starting Battery passed the AutoZone load test.

    Yes, a code that is about a circuit should always be investigated by checking out the whole circuit before replacing any parts.
