Chevy Silverado throttle body cleaning & fast idol problem

[@jaxonm4524]

Just did the exact same thing. Wish there was more forums about this issue. According to all the “experts” online you are supposed to be able to reset it by turning the engine on for 3 minutes, then off for 60 seconds, and back on for 3 minutes but it doesn’t work. At least not for me. Having to get a scan tool now so I can get it reset/relearn. Wish I would’ve never bothered cleaning the throttle body..lesson learned!

Thanks for the video. I had cleaned my throttle body and put a new throttle sensor. I had to drive it around with high rpm but it got better on its own after half day of driving it in town and freeway. But if you have the money it is worth to buy a scanner. You will need it for sure if you work on your vehicles. X tool d7s was best choice for me.

I cleaned my throttle body before and it was jumpy but it learn on its own give it like 2 weeks it’ll be back to normal and clean. The rpm’s go up but just let them come back down mine was 2013 Sierra

[@davidrojasmartinez3428]

@@tylermackenzie6098 I ended up taking it to a mechanic to relearn it and it went away!

[@cruzolivas6319]

Ima give that a shot, what I have to do is as soon as I fire it up I put in reverse asap so rpms can go back to atleast 800

Suppppppper helpful. Having this issue as we speak. Calling Chevy tomorrow

[@greywhiteman1944]

Did it work?

[@barneythedog977]

My mechanic said, you can drive it and it will reset itself after so many cycles. Or come by and he will fix it quick for free, (THE MAN IS SO NICE AND BEEN AROUND OVER 40 YEARS IN HIS BIG SHOP 4.9 google rating he has)

[@mattgontier3635]

I have. the same problem with my truck now. I did the exact same things you did and now I have to go and have my idle re learned from one mechanic because my scanner isn't good enough. I tried leaving the battery unplugged all night to see if that would relearn the throttle. Nope! Have to have the idle relearned! Don't clean the TB yourself unless you have a good scan tool! No way around it. Unless you

[@ericnicholls6783]

Were you able to drive the truck with high rpms

[@Dee--Jay]

I just replaced my throttle body and it idles 200 rpms higher than it suppose to. it threw a check engine code. SO i guess i have to take it in the shop then

[@michaelcato6300]

Did you press the gas three times with the key on (not cranked) ?

[@slickrik758]

Why????? Isnt that for oil light

[@dkmadeit]

thanks for the info!

[@richardkilyanek6924]

U can clean it if u dont disassembl..dont open it urself...put wait on gas pedal with key in accessories position..then clean it ..youll be fine

[@TTURKI]

And all these dirts are in your intake manifold ? No thanks 😂

[@cruzolivas6319]

Did that and rpms still went high

[@buck2552jr100]

You can reset your idle without a scanner too. Video is online.

[@eddy7655]

If you're talking about the "run for 3 minutes, shut off for 60 seconds" videos, that shit doesn't work!!

Any issues with trans on truck? Like 1-2 hard as F shift

[@panteraklan681]

Im same spot as you, any advice? Did u fix ur problem?

[@420flying6]

Unfortunately in my situation trans had to come out. Forget proper name but was a part inside transmission on top of it. Luckily was a warranty on transmission.

[@Dustinlong4896]

You can reset by unplugging battery for 30 minutes

[@rodneyhendricks2412]

Yep

[@barneythedog977]
