OK. Nothing to do with water pump.
Recommend checking your IAC (Idle Air Control) circuit. This allows air to bypass the throttle body while idling, at stop sign, etc.
Here are a couple of links that should help you

Check the fuse for those items that don't work.

Mine did the same thing... Aparently there is a anti theft chip that causes this... You must make it to a highway/freeway or bout 25 miles of a maintained speed and allow the car to rset itself or its stall out city...

Maybe a short to the TPS or something shorting it out. There's also the IAC that really controls the idle but usually it will cause the RPM's to go up and down a little erratic if bad. The MAF sensor can cause major problems as well but since you already swapped the TPS and it helped and then stopped I would focus on that sensor and especially it's wiring to and from the ECM. Be careful with the sensor signal wire to the ECM can blow it if more than 5v passes or spikes.

Go to Autozone, Advance, etc.. any good parts store and OBII scan done (fault scan) they do this FREE. Scan will tell you what sensor(s) to go after to fix. Once you repair or replace sensor have parts store reset your light.
