Camry throttle reset method is as follows;1. First, turn the key to the power supply position, but do not start the vehicle engine, that is, in the off state. 2. Then, after standing for about 10 seconds, quickly press the accelerator pedal to the bottom, be sure to press it quickly to the bottom, hold for 15 seconds, and then quickly release the pedal. 3. After that, turn off the key door, pull out the key, and stand for about 15 seconds. 4. Finally, start the vehicle normally, and the reset is complete. Extended information: The electronic throttle has a self-adjustment function, and reset is generally required after cleaning or replacement. The function of the throttle is to specifically input air into the engine and discharge the exhaust gas after combustion.
When it comes to resetting the Camry's throttle body, I enjoy working on cars myself. First, it's essential to understand the throttle body's function—it controls the engine's air intake. After cleaning, its position might be off, affecting the car's stability. The reset process is straightforward: Pop the hood, locate the battery, disconnect the negative terminal by loosening the clamp, and wait ten minutes to let the ECU forget the old data. Reconnect it, but don't rush to start the engine. Sit in the driver's seat, turn the key to the 'ON' position without starting, and wait about 30 seconds for the system to recalibrate. Then, ignite the engine and let it idle for 5-10 minutes without touching the accelerator. Once you hear the cooling fan kick in automatically, the initial learning is complete. Finally, take a short drive for a few kilometers to let the ECU adapt to the new position. Remember to ensure the car is off and not electrically live before starting—safety first! Post-reset, idle will smooth out, and fuel efficiency may improve. This method works for most Camry model years, saving you a trip to the shop.
