2006 Chevy SSR

How do you program the throttle body on a 2006 Chevy SSR. I installed a new throttle body and gasket. I put everything back together and pushed the connector into the side of the throttle body. I turned the key to the start position for 3 minutes and started it it started. But now one of them are not seeing each other. It has a pedal switch I did not replace and a new throttle body. How do you program it it has no throttle cable it is all electronics. Thanks.

you are guessing again with this repair without proper guidance. you need a scan tool from a shop that can monitor these systems and locate the failure. code numbers never identify bad parts. you have spent a ton of money on parts that may not have been bad at all. thats why you need to pay for a real diag from a shop and then they will tell you the exact failure.

100 bucks is very reasonable considering what you have already spent.
