Gents,
Help. I changed my spark plugs this Saturday and had to remove the intake tube to the throttle body. While the tube was out, I thought, hey why not take a clean rag with a bit of carb cleaning fluid and wipe the TB butterfly clean. I did that and wiped off some gunk. Now, two days later, I got the P0507 error code.

Does anyone know how to perform the idle reset for an 2007 Frontier SE V6? Thanks in advance.

always disconnect the battery when you do or change anything under the hood

I had to have the stealership do it with their handheld but Im sure there is a backway. I also didnt tell them that I cleaned the throttle plate and they did it under warranty.

Yeah, I leave the battery unhooked for 15 minutes and it forgets everything it ever knew. What is that code for?

I dont have the diagram for the vehicle but when you move the plate it affects the TPS setting for idle position or something like that. I havent touched mine since battery disconnected or not.

Thanks for the help, guys.
I disconnected the negative terminal and waited a bit - The check engine light went away when I restarted the engine. I then drove around for about 20 minutes and looks like everything is back to normal.

You got to have the idle relearned after throttle body cleaning.I have seen some thats been cleaned take out the throttle body itself and have to be replaced.

If you want to cleanthe throttle plate, theres a safe way. Turn the key on, engine off. Set e brake and put it in gear(both auto or manual) then have some one press the gas pedal to the floor and hold it down. The butterfly will open right up. Clean away, but be very gentle. Also, dont use carb cleaner, use throttle body cleaner, much more gentle. You may have to reset the idle after cleaning if it was really gunked up.

Sweet, good deal man. In my opinion...Unless you get trouble out of it again its good to go. Don't spend extra money until you absolutely have to. I cleaned mine the same way and although it didn't set off the SES it hasn't givin me a problem.
