TP Sensor Learn (CADILLAC)

1995 GMC Suburban K2500, 7.4 NSECTION TP Sensor Learn (CADILLAC)
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 70 other vehicles, including the 1996 Saturn SW2, 1996 Saturn SW1, 1996 Saturn SL2, 1996 Saturn SL1, and 1996 Saturn SL. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If a NEW TP sensor or throttle body is installed, EBTCM must learn new TP sensor idle position voltage. This procedure is necessary to ensure effective engine management. If an improper TP sensor offset is maintained by the PCM, a high idle at closed throttle or stall condition may occur.

  1. Turn ignition on (engine off). Wait for 30 seconds.
  2. Turn ignition to LOCK position. Wait for 30 seconds.
NOTE: Ensure accelerator and brake pedals are free from any obstructions while performing TP sensor/idle learn procedure. Ensure that cruise control cable is not holding throttle open. PCM will not perform learn function with accelerator pedal or brake pedal obstructions.
