Map sensor
the speedometer works on and off is why I’m assuming it is a loose ground and both symptoms started at the same time

TMAP grounds thru ECM pin #26 (5V Sensor Ground) BK/W wire
A faulty sensor can negatively affect the signal voltage of the other sensors sharing the same 5V reference.
Intermittent TPS malfunctions may cause the TMAP to set a code prior to the TPS codes setting.
Verify smooth and consistent TPS operation before replacing the ECM.
Many codes will be the result of a poor connection: Inspect ECM harness connectors for all the sensors on the 5 volt reference line
(especially any that you may have done any recent work around example Air Cleaner, JSS - Jiffy Stand Switch is on your bike)
for backed out terminals, improper mating, inoperative locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, poor terminal-
to-wire connection and damaged harness.
The ECM supplies a 5V signal on terminal 14 to terminal B of
the TPS. The TPS sends a signal back to the ECM on terminal
24. The returned signal varies in voltage according to throttle
position.
• At idle (closed throttle), the signal is typically in the range of ~ 0.2 - 0.8V.
• At wide open throttle, the signal is normally ~ 4.0-4.9V.
The multimeter reads throttle position in Volts. Voltage should
increase at a steady rate as the throttle is moved from idle to
wide open.
TPS scaling: Observe the TPS voltage display while
opening the throttle with engine stopped and ignition switch
ON. Display should vary from closed throttle TPS voltage
(when throttle is closed) to greater than 4.0V (when throttle
is held wide open). As the throttle is slowly moved, the
voltage should change gradually without spikes or low
voltages being observed.

is it enough to check voltage on ecm and throttle sensor when electric is on, or I need running bike?
thanks

the twin sensors for the tps is for safety in case one fails, same on auto. as one goes up, one goes down and the ecu looks at both and if not in a window, will go to safe mode.
you must test the map with a vacuum source, on engine testing is futile since it sees no load unless you are doing it dynamically on the road, have your passenger observe or video via cell phone.

With the speed sensor unhooked, don't worry about turn signals not cancelling properly or if you suddenly develop an idle issue - speed sensor is part of telling bike it's not moving and affects IAC.
TPS sensors that sum are on Electronic Throttle Control bikes - one sensor it at twist grip, one is at the intake. One goes from 0-5 and the other from 5-0. If they do not sum, codes and derate happen.
TPS sensors on cable throttle bodies just go from 0-5 with throttle blade movement open.

depending upon system, there is a redundant built in so if one fails the other takes over, but depending upon failure type determines limp mode. the twist sensor has two hall effect sensors for example.
