the shop took the top of the motor off to put plugs and plug wires on. then put a fuel pump in ? now you got no fuel gauge pump not working correctly. if they did the work then make them fix it . but if the new fuelpump didnt fix it .then look at the pass-thru connector .its in the floorboard behind the drivers seat, if you sit in the second row seat drivers side it gonna be right below where your feet are. there are two under there the one that has the fuel pump ,fuel gauge wires in it is the bigger of the two. open the connector and see if it is green inside it. if so the go get a can of electrical cleaner and spray inside it and the plug to. if it cleans up good and the pins are not broken . get some dialectric cream and put a good bit in the connector. this will keep some of the moisture out that g.m. s seal on the plug did not. it is possible they didn't get the connector hooked up on the top of the fuelpump but let them worry about that.and do pay any more for them having to do it a second time.they done been paid.the pass-thru connector is just another one of g.m.s pi** poor design flaws.the lean burn cause by the fuel pump will cause a code for the tps. get the fuel straightend out and then see if it pops a code for the tps.

Find a different shop! These guys are running you through the ringer! At least get a second opinion!!!
