    I find it silly that the computer will adjust for error but is hopeless at adjusting back to normal position.

    Thanks Doc! Had this happen on 2003 Tahoe 5.3 about 5 years ago, throttle body was not that dirty but I cleaned it, wiped out the code and as of today have not had an issue with it again.

    This was a refresher video for me. I have a 07 Chevrolet Trailblazer with a 4.2, & was showing both these codes P1516, & P2101; I do have a code reader that lets me know whats going on along with a Haynes repair manual to tell me what the code is. I never had the new throttle body recalibrated since the install. So I'll just take in to shop to have it done, But at least I'll go in with some know how what needs to done by the shop. Thanks for the video & the help. I did watch another video on how to install a ball joint on my Chevrolet C3500 dually, & You used the same van that your working on in this video; Again it was very helpful; Also I went ahead sub. to your channel; IMHO your the best; Thanks again.

    Hello Doctor. Can you give me your opinion on our Enclave issue? We have a 2011 Enclave CXL 2WD. It has 110K miles. Like a month ago it reduced speed on highway and showed "Reduced engine power", when my wife took it to Autozone for codes it showed several misfires. I researched the issue online and ended up cleaning the throttle vary and it worked perfect. The engine light disappeared when I reset the computer. No more issues until 3 weeks ago when were driving on the highway and the same situation happened. I took it to Autozone and the code was "misfire on injector 5". After I kept driving it the engine light disappeared by itself and the car was working fine until today. I was driving very slowly on the park and the same message came to the board, the car lost power and a lot of white smoke. I took it to Autozone and the code read misfire on injectors 1,3,5 and issue with fuel pressure regulator. Do you have any idea what could be the issue with this car?

    Tim great video and thank you. Question, if you don’t have the proper scan tool, would disconnecting the battery and connecting the P+/N- terminals together also reset the Idle Fuel Trims so it will Re-learn? Just curious if that’s a work-around if you don’t have the scan tool. I know sometimes that works for relearning transmission shift points etc.

    my 2011 camero stalled thought it was the battery jumping it didn't help so had it towed home. then when i had the battery charged back up,the check engine light was on then it had these codes, p2176, p069e & p2176 twice. so when it stalled i thought it was the battery so could this be the reason that the car wouldn't take a jump.
