Default 2008 Throttle body replacement question

My buddy’s 08 Street Glide started with the TPS/TGS issue last week. It was throwing codes for both. He replaced the grip sensor and it’s still going into limp mode. Now throwing low/high codes for the TPS. He’s putting in a whole new throttle body today.
The question is- does it need to go to the dealer to get reprogrammed or is it plug and play? TIA. -Mark

It's probably needing the sockets replaced - I would do that first.
