Things that spring to my (relatively inexperienced) mind would be:
- Contamination/corrosion in the connector(s) that mate to the throttle body.
- Wear/looseness in these connectors.
- Poor contact between the cable core and the connector due to manufacturing problems or wear.
- Connector insecure in the plug body.
- Failure in a cable core.
I'm sure there are other things to look for as well.

I too would love to know the forensics on the cause, dirty contacts can explain variable readings but can't explain the >100% values unless there was shorting between pins.
On another note, how did you decide to remedy the brake situation?
