The engine control module (ECM) learns the airflow through the throttle body to ensure the correct engine speed. The learnt airflow values are stored within the ECM. These values are learned to adjust for production variation and will continuously learn during the life of the vehicle to compensate for reduced airflow due to throttle body coking. Anytime the throttle body airflow rate changes, for example due to cleaning or replacement, the values must be re-learned.
An engine that had a heavily coked throttle body that has been cleaned or replaced may take several drive cycles to learn out the coking. To accelerate the process, the scan tool has the ability to reset all learnt values back to zero. A new ECM will also have values set to zero.
The engine speed may be unstable or a DTC may set if the learned values do not match the actual airflow.
