Default TPS relearn

Does any body know the TPS relearn procedure? Mine just went out and the GM book says to use the scan tool diagnostics in the ABS. I can't find anything relevent there.

TPS relearn? I think you're looking for
something else. TPS is just a dumb pot.

Is this a 'vette thing? The TPS on the
F-bodies is just a sensor and I don't
think there's any learning to do with it.

Vettes do have "Idle Relearn" with their "Fly-By-Wire".Here's a Relearn procedure orig posted by Patches on CorvetteForum -
** Automatic Transmission:
1 Turn off the ignition

2 Restore the PCM battery feed

3 Turn Off the AC controls

4 Set the parking brake and block the drive wheels

5 Start the engine

6 Allow the engine coolant temperature to reach 176 degrees F

7 Shift the transmission selector into the drive range

8 Allow the engine to idle for 5 minutes

9 Turn on the AC controls (Omit for 2000-01 model)

10 Allow the engine to idle for 5 minutes (Omit for 2000-01 model)

11 Shift the transmission selector into Park

12 Allow the engine to idle for 5 minutes (Omit for 2000-01 model)

13 Turn off the AC controls (Omit for 2000-01 model)

14 Allow the engine to idle for 5 minutes

15 Turn off the engine for 15 seconds


***Manual Transmission:

1 Turn Off the ignition

2 Restore the PCM battery feed

3 Turn Off the AC controls

4 Set the parking brake and block the drive wheels

5 Transmission in neutral

6 Start the engine

7 Allow the engine coolant temperature to reach 176 degrees F

8 Turn on the AC controls (Omit for 2000-01 model)

9 Allow the engine to idle for 5 minutes (Omit for 2000-01 model)

10 Turn off the AC controls (Omit for 2000-01 model)

11 Allow the engine to idle for 5 minutes

12 Turn off the engine for 15 seconds
Hope this helps some.
