Default Issue with Falcon AU2 6cyl 4.0 petrol - shudder when accelerating

Issue with Falcon AU2 6cyl 4.0 petrol only shudder when accelerating.

When I accelerate in about 3rd gear (automatic), and around 60-100kph, the car shudders,

When I disconnect the Throttle position switch on the AMM, the car no longer shudders.

I have replaced the Throttle position switch, ignition leads, spark plugs, injectors, spark plugs, fuel filter, oil filter, oil, air filter.

Was wondering what else this could be.

It seems like an electrical issue from the Throttle position switch back as disconnecting this clears the issue.

When the car starts shuddering, the dash reads "cruise control set" - my au is a Forte and doesn't have cruise control, so im confused as to why this appears.

I have no ABS, no cruise control and no LPG.

This is a 2001 AU2 sedan, non-IRS, 6cyl auto 4lt

If someone can give me some help isolating the cause of the shudder it would be much appreciated

Thanks
