Reset/Learn Procedure

Reset Procedure - Performed after the throttle body is cleaned or replaced

  1. Ignition ON, engine OFF, perform the Idle Learn Reset in Module Setup with a scan tool.
  2. Engine idling, monitor the Throttle Body Idle Airflow Compensation parameter. The Throttle Body Idle Airflow Compensation value should equal 0 % and the engine should be idling at a normal idle speed.
  3. Clear the DTCs and return to the diagnostic that referred you here.

Learn Procedure - Performed after the ECM is programmed or replaced

  1. Engine idling for 3 minutes.
  2. Monitor the Desired Idle Speed and the actual Engine Speed with a scan tool.
  3. The ECM will start to learn the new idle cells and Desired Idle Speed should start to decrease.
  4. Ignition OFF for 60 s.
  5. Engine idling for 3 minutes.
  6. After the 3 minute run time the engine speed should return to normal. NOTE: During the drive cycle monitor the DTC information with a scan tool to verify DTC P0506 and P0507 do not set. If DTC P0506 and P0507 set, clear the DTCs so the ECM can continue to learn. If the engine idle speed has not been learned the vehicle will need to be driven at speeds above 70 km/h (44 mph) with several decelerations and extended idles.
  7. After the drive cycle, the engine speed should return to normal. If the engine idle speed has not been learned, turn OFF the ignition for 60 s and repeat step 6.
  8. Once the engine speed has returned to normal, clear DTCs and return to the diagnostic that referred you here.

Scheme 71: Heated Oxygen Sensor Replacement - Bank 1 Sensor 1
CalloutComponent Name
Preliminary Procedures If equipped with FWD, raise and support the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle . If equipped with AWD, lower the front suspension frame. Refer to Drivetrain and Front Suspension Frame Replacement .
1Heated Oxygen Sensor CAUTION: Refer to Heated Oxygen and Oxygen Sensor Caution . CAUTION: Refer to Fastener Caution . TIP: A special anti-seize compound is used in the HO2S threads. The compound consists of liquid graphite and glass beads. The graphite tends to burn away, but the glass beads remain, making the sensor easier to remove. New, or service replacement sensors already have the compound applied to the threads. If the sensor is removed from an exhaust component and if for any reason the sensor is to be reinstalled, the threads must have anti-seize compound applied before reinstallation. Procedure Disconnect the heated oxygen sensor harness connector. If reinstalling the old sensor, coat the threads with anti-seize compound. Refer to Adhesives, Fluids, Lubricants, and Sealers . Tighten 42 N.m (31 lb in)
CAUTION
Refer to Heated Oxygen and Oxygen Sensor Caution .
CAUTION
Refer to Fastener Caution .

For equivalent regional tools, refer to Special Tools .

WARNINGNever drain or store fuel in an open container. Always use an approved fuel storage container in order to reduce the chance of fire or explosion.
WARNINGPlace a dry chemical (Class B) fire extinguisher nearby before performing any on-vehicle service procedures. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury.
  1. Remove the fuel fill cap.
  2. Raise and suitably support the vehicle. Refer to «Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle»(ref-491131-S06536846302012073000000) .
  3. Loosen the fuel fill pipe hose clamps and slide the fill pipe hose up the filler pipe.
  4. Insert the CH-45004 fuel tank drain hose into the fuel tank until the hose reaches the bottom of the fuel tank.
  5. Use an hand or air operated pump device in order to drain as much fuel as possible.
