First check the condition of the battery and battery cables. If the battery is less than 12.4 volts charged, then some functions will not work. There is a ground wire to the fuse box that goes to the frame. Check to see if the wire is loose or has corrosion.
Check the fuses in the fuse box and make sure that all of the fuses are in good shape. Check the power wire from the battery to the fuse box and from the alternator to the fuse box for any looseness or corrosion.
If all of the wiring checks out and nothing is wrong, then it is possible that all of the issues have occurred at once. If you need further assistance diagnosing your electrical system, then seek out a professional, such as one from Your Mechanic, to help you with your vehicle.

Check the harness to the TPS for any debris or any corrosion. Hook up a paperclip to the harness and turn on the key. Use a multimeter and check for voltage at the pins of the harness. Make sure that the ground on the sensor is grounded and has no resistance. If you find that the harness is having too much resistance, then I recommend having the main engine harness replaced. If you have replaced the harness and still have the same problems, then the computer will need to be flashed or replaced.
I recommend having a professional, like one from YourMechanic, come to your home to diagnose your car’s no start condition before replacing any parts.
