Default All of the sudden high idle and "Service" light

Advance Auto hooked up their computer and it said the "Idle Controller" was bad. Bought a new one and installed and the problem is still there. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

What was the exact code? Is the service light still on? Does it have the same error code? If you lightly press the throttle when your at high idle, does the RPM's go down or up? Could be a bad throttle position sensor.
