Rough running after throttle body cleaning

Hey guys I'm changing the radiator out of my car and decided to clean the throttle body, so I took it off cleaned everything that I could (used qd electronics cleaner) made damn sure not to touch the butterfly plate but when I put everything back together yesterday started it up it was running like Chitty Chitty bang bang and I have codes p2101 and p2119 any ideas or suggestions?

Lord Xenu! I sprayed electronics cleaner on the contacts and now it works fine. Must have gotten oil on them after I had cleaned it already
