Unfortunately no ! Your best bet take it to the dealer . The
P0420 always ends up being the catalytic converter ! P2104 isn't throttle air control .
P2112 - Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) System - Stuck Closed.
Description:
This powertrain control module (PCM) fault status indicates the throttle plate is at a lower angle than commanded.
Possible Causes:
Diagnostic Aids:
Application
Key On Engine Off
Key On Engine Running
Continuous Memory
All
GO to DV1
P2104 - Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) System - Forced Idle
Description:
The TAC system is in the failure mode effects management (FMEM) mode of forced idle.
Possible Causes:
Diagnostic Aids:
This DTC is an informational DTC and can be set in combination with a number of other DTCs which are causing the FMEM. Diagnose other DTCs first.
Application
Key On Engine Off
Key On Engine Running
Continuous Memory

GO to QE1
P0506 - Idle Air Control (IAC) System RPM Lower Than Expected
For Vehicles With Electronic Throttle Control (ETC)
Description:
This DTC is set when the powertrain control module (PCM) detects an engine idle speed that is less than the desired RPM.
Possible Causes:
Diagnostic Aids:
This DTC is informational only and it may be accompanied by other DTCs. Diagnose other DTCs first. If other DTCs are not present inspect the intake air system for air restrictions and damage. If no concerns are present, clear the DTC and retest.
For All Others
Description:
This DTC is set when the powertrain control module (PCM) detects an engine idle speed that is less than the desired RPM.
Possible Causes:
Diagnostic Aids:
Disconnect the IAC valve and look for little or no change in engine RPM as an indication of a stuck or damaged valve.
Application
Key On Engine Off
Key On Engine Running
Continuous Memory
Vehicles With Electronic Throttle Control (ETC)
Refer to the Description, Possible Causes and Diagnostic Aids for the DTC.

SOURCE: I have a 1996 Lexus LX450, engine light came on. The DTC is P0420
With that code you most likely have to replace the catalytic converter.You can try to reset the light but it will come back in time.
SOURCE: P0420 Catalyst System below threshold (Bank 1)
Replace the O2 sensors . they have one in the front and one in the back of the Catalytic Coverter pipes.Scan the SUV again to see if the codes were cleared.Meaning no "check engine light" on.
SOURCE: I have a P0420 code catalyst efficiency below
it is a bad converter not o 2 sensor i would change the cat and both o 2 sensors
SOURCE: Code P0506, Idle control system RPM low
It's common that you get a lot of carbon build up at the base of the throttle body. Give it a good spray cleaning with injector cleaner and dry it with a hair dryer. If you find it still to dirty, you can try it again with a second can or if you can try using Sea Foam that you can buy at an auto parts store like Auto Zone. The Sea foam will clean out the carbon but also create a lot of smoke.
When i say lot's of smoke, just do a search on You Tube for Sea Foam. Good luck and hope this helps.

Fail-safe Operation
Since the operation of the vehicle systems depends on the power mode, there is a fail-safe plan in place should the BCM fail to send a power mode message. The fail-safe plan covers modules with discrete ignition signal inputs as well as those modules using exclusively serial data control of power mode.
Serial Data Messages
The modules that depend exclusively on serial data messages for power modes stay in the state dictated by the last valid BCM message until they can check for the engine run flag status on the serial data circuits. If the BCM fails, the modules monitor the serial data circuit for the engine run flag serial data. If the engine run flag serial data is True, indicating that the engine is running, the modules fail-safe to "RUN". In this state the modules and their subsystems can support all operator requirements. If the engine run flag serial data is False, indicating that the engine is not running, the modules fail-safe to "OFF-AWAKE". In this state the modules are constantly checking for a change status message on the serial data circuits and can respond to both local inputs and serial data inputs from other modules on the vehicle.
Discrete Ignition Signals
Those modules that have discrete ignition signal inputs also remain in the state dictated by the last valid BCM message received on the serial data circuits. They then check the state of their discrete ignition input to determine the current valid state. If the discrete ignition input is active, B+, the modules will fail-safe to the "RUN" power mode. If the discrete ignition input is not active, open or 0 voltage, the modules will fail-safe to "OFF-AWAKE". In this state the modules are constantly checking for a change status message on the serial data circuits and can respond to both local inputs and serial data inputs from other modules on the vehicle.
You probably won't understand any of this info. your best but would be to take it to a qualified repair shop that has proper diagnostic test equipment !
