IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE
Before starting engine, follow the "Idle Learn Procedure" as follows:
^ Install Tech 1 "Scan" tool.
^ Ignition "ON," engine "OFF."
^ Select "IAC SYSTEM," then "IDLE LEARN" in the "MISC TEST" mode.
^ Proceed with idle learn as directed.

This procedure allows the ECM memory to be updated with the correct IAC valve pintle position for the vehicle and provides for a stable idle speed.
