INSTALLATION
1. Position the throttle position sensor so that the pigtail points toward the idle air control valve.

NOTE: When the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, some abnormal drive symptoms may occur while the powertrain control
module relearns its adaptive strategy. The vehicle may need to be driven 16 km (10 miles) or more to relearn the strategy.
