Default Engine flucuates

Hoping someone can help. I just got a 1993 Splash with 4.0. While driving , when I release the accelerator the rpms drop to 1000 then bounces between 1000 and 1500 rpms. I've tried 3 different TPS and cleaned the IAC and it has a new MAF . When i got the truck the bottom of the fuse box was not fastened a the diode for the ECM was loose causing problems. I wonder if the ECM was damaged while it was not getting connection. Any Ideas ?

Thought I might get some help one here. But guess no one has ever had my problem or no one really cares,

No. Usually after it warms up. When I slow down to about 25 it idles correctly.
