Code 121 is for a problem with the circuit for the sensor.
The computer is getting a signal that is out of range, too low or too high.
If you know for a fact the sensor is ok, you may have to check the circuit back to the computer. You would also need a scanner to read the sensor signal.

The sensor is located on the left hand rear side of the block (near the bell housing). It is held in place by a 10mm bolt. It's to the right of the exhaust manifold (LH - radiator side) on the V6. Once you purchase the new sensor you'll be able to identify it on the engine. The connector to this sensor is located in the illustration.

2016 Hyundai Sonata error code P2122 throttle/pedal position sensor. My dealer has never fixed this before.(?) No one can tell me if this is one unit or a separate Throttle sensor or pedal sensor.

You need to replace the accelerator pedal position sensor, this is an entire throttle pedal assembly which includes the position sensor. Common fault on both Hyundai and Kia cars. This part should be under your federal emissions warranty.

How do I solve for My Hyundai sonata model 2009 code P2110 , P2118 in scaning. I changed throttle body and TP sensor. after change of these even I am getting problem in accelerator not increases above

P2110...Faulty Throttle Actuator Control Module
- Throttle Actuator Control Module harness is open or shorted
- Throttle Actuator Control Module circuit poor electrical connection

P2118 - Electronic Throttle Control(ETC) system is made of the components throttle body, Throttle Position Sensor(TPS)1&2 and Accelerator Position Sensor(APS) 1&2. The throttle body contains the actuator, the throttle plate and the throttle position sensor (potentiometer), which are integrated in one housing. The actuator consists of a DC motor with a two-stage gear. The opening angle of the throttle valve is detected by the throttle position sensor which is mounted on the throttle body. And it provides feedback to the ECM to control the throttle motor in order to control the throttle valve opening angle properly in response to the driving condition.

My car is Hyundai sonata 2004 v6 I have error P0038 HO2S Heater Control Circuit High (Bank 1 Sensor 2) could you help me to know what is the part number

The code means the O2 sensor is not heating up fast enough. It has nothing to do with the heater inside the car.
The sensor and the circuit would need to be tested to find out what the problem is. The code does not mean something needs to be replaced. Only tested.

No Throttle Response - 2006 Hyndai Sonata Diesel Auto

Have dealer check the computer codes - I had same problem and it required that the accelerator module be replaced - this is "drive by wire" system - no direct hookup to the throttle body.
