Can somebody please tell me how to calibrate the throttle position sensor, I have the manual on cd and all it tells me is how to remove and refit same, it does not tell how to calibrate it. Sorry guys it is on a 2002 au 6 cylinder auto.

no calibration required, it's all done by the computer

Thank you for that Mr Hardware, I had been told that I had to recalibrate it every time you disconnected the battery, that is why I came to someone that can put me on the right track.

every time you disconnect the battery, the ECU resets itself.
Thats probably what they meant. |

As long as the few minutes with the aircon off and on are done in a manual, it should go okay. GK

if it was 3am

Selecting drive is to let the ECU learn idle under load.
Same for turning on AC. If you have a manual, the only load under idle it needs to learn is the AC..... Cheers James |

When it says to put the car in gear, I've always turned the highbeams on.
Remeber hearing that from someone a while ago. Cheers
