So, the CEL came on and the code from the OBDII is P1120 (Throttle Position Sensor out of range).
Did anyone get this and how did you fix it?

Where is that sensor located?

It is on the TB (throttle body). Left hand side usually and it is black little thing that has a connector and it is right in the beginning of it.
Looks something like this
