Idle Learn Procedure
1993 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham V8-350 5.7LSECTION Idle Learn Procedure
DESCRIPTION
The Throttle Position (TP) sensor is non-adjustable. If a new sensor is being installed, the Electronic Brake and Traction Control System (EBTCM) must "learn" the TP sensor idle position voltage with new components installed. This is necessary to ensure effective engine torque reduction during traction control events.
SPECIAL TOOL REQUIREMENT
The Idle Learn procedure requires a Tech 1 scan tool or a T-100 (CAMS) unit. The following procedure describes this procedure using the Tech 1 scan tool.
IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE
1. Turn ignition Off, then connect Chassis or Mass Storage Cartridge.
2. Turn ignition On, then follow menus to reach ABS/TCS features.
3. Select F5: TP SENSOR LEARN, then press UP arrow to begin learn procedure.
4. Wait for Tech 1 to indicate COMPLETE, then turn ignition Off and disconnect Tech 1.

- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
