Cleaned throttle body, The throttle plate was, as the code suggested. Stuck open, not completely, but its not supposed to be open, at all- right?

From how many throttles Ive cleaned, I know its not supposed to be slightly cocked, How would I go about fixing this? I cleaned all the carbon i could off the butterfly. but since its drive by wire. What else could be making it stay slightly open?

Ordered a used throttle body from Ebay- LKQ. $50 Shipped. It only has 10k miles on it, it says. Compared to all the higher mileage ones they had listed. Hoping for the best. If not, its just a return. no big deal.

 

Good deal man.
Keep us updated on the fix.

 

Actually ended up getting a reman throttle body . Lets see how this goes - How do I go about doing an Idle Relearn? It says to do it on the part. I searched through my owners manual and I couldnt find anything.

Everything Im reading online says to just play with the pedal a bit. Hold and release a few times. Ill give it a shot.

edit: LOL I just saw a sensor unplugged by the airbox. Plugged it back in. re-attached battery, No codes!! lets hope it stays like that.
