So far, I have already replaced the IAC (idle air control valve) and the battery is really weak so I have that on a charger. Any idea as to what else it may be? It's not sputtering or anything when I hit the gas, it just won't idle. Not sure if its the tps or something else.

The low battery voltage is wacking out the PCMs learned adaptives to control the engine idle. Clean the throttle butterflies also.
