I installed a new battery, and now it won't idle correctly. Does anyone know the procedure for resetting the computer to fix this problem? steve01832 Veteran Sep 22, 2006, 7:25 AM Post #2 of 3 (6823 views) Re: How do I reset computer to re-learn idle speed Sign In There are 2 ways. You can let it idle in park for about 20 mins and then hold the brake and shift into drive and idle for 5 mins. then take for a drive. The second way is to unplug the idle air control motor with engine off. Start vehicle and connect the plug back once the idle stabilizes. The engine should rev up and then come back down. Take for a drive. Either way you really have to drive it so the computer can relearn driving strategy. It should improve the longer you drive.

They work (at least cheap ones) off of a 9V battery and can save some grief, T   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
