Throttle Control System, need help...

[halcyonlost]

Hey guys,

I have a 2000 Catera. My check engine light is on and the error code was about the Throttle Control System. I had left my car on, but not running for 10 minutes. Then when I started it up the check engine light came on.

Any idea whats going on here/how to fix this?

Thanks in Advance,

Hal.

What code was it?

There is a procedure for when the battery is disconnect in which you leave the key in the ignition for "x" amount of time (could not remember the exact amount) in the "run" position so that things like the throttle...etc...have a chance to set themselves. I am really not sure that this would flip a code but then again I have never left the keys in a car for ten minutes in the run position. Report the code back here. If it was something stupid the light should go out in two drive cycles.
