What are the six methods for throttle body matching?

There are six methods for throttle body matching, including manual matching, etc. Manual Matching: Some vehicles use cable-operated throttle bodies. After replacing the throttle body, you can manually match it by turning the ignition key on and off several times. The vehicle's computer will delete the old throttle body's memory and store the new throttle body's data. If the vehicle runs normally, the matching is complete. Battery Disconnect Matching: After replacing the throttle body, disconnect the negative terminal of the battery and wait for one minute before reconnecting it. This process will clear the vehicle computer's original memory and restore it to factory settings. If the vehicle starts and runs normally, the matching is successful. This method is suitable for low-end vehicles and should not be used for high-end vehicles. Diagnostic Tool Matching: After replacing the throttle body, you can use a specialized automotive diagnostic tool for matching. Enter the system, select action test, and click on "adaptive value reset." Repeat this process several times. If the vehicle starts and runs normally, the matching is successful. Old Throttle Position Sensor Matching: After installing a new throttle body, if you encounter issues like unstable idle speed or excessively high idle speed, you can unplug the new throttle position sensor and plug it into the old throttle position sensor. Start the vehicle and let it run normally, then turn off the engine and reconnect the wiring harness to the new throttle body. Electronic Throttle Manual Matching: Most modern engines use electronic throttle bodies, and the matching method differs from cable-operated ones. After replacing the throttle body, turn on the ignition and listen for the sound of the throttle motor operating. Wait for about a minute until the throttle motor operates again, then start the vehicle. If the vehicle runs normally, the matching is successful.
