Lexus ES300 with very low idle after disconnecting the battery. This idle relearn procedure works on Toyota and Lexus, with the 1MZ engine experiencing low idle after disconnecting and reconnecting the battery. This procedure works for Lexus ES300, Toyota Camry (2003-2006), and Lexus RX 300 (1998-2003). Symptoms are similar to a faulty air idle control valve or dirty throttle body on a higher mileage Lexus ES. The car had low idle and would occasionally stall. The procedure took about 15 min to relearn the idle. For the first 7 minutes, I left the car to idle on its own. Then, at around minute 8, I pressed the brake pedal a few times and held it for 10 seconds. I did that about five times. Afterward, I pressed the gas pedal gently, raising the RPM to about 2,300 RPM 5 times slowly. After about 14 minutes, I put the car in park and let it idle. Next, I took it on a test drive, and the car, after 10 minutes, regained perfect idle.

I own 4 Toyota's, they all come back pretty quick but this Lexus ES330 took about four tries and the fourth time I let it idle about 15 minutes and the idle finally started coming up gradually. It was originally about 200 rpm and it went up to about 550 and sat there for another 15 minutes before it moved some more.

My Avalon needed a jump start once. After starting it would idle but not rev up. When I jumped it the throttle body fuse blew. After replacing the fuse it ran fine.

My 94 ES300 just started stalling at low rpms, i will turn off a/c, fan, radio and jot down the relearn procedure, is that relearn procedure published anywhere on the internet? I also have a shift solenoid A electrical P0753 tranny code, that causes a spinning first gear in D, but i have been shifting to low manually if i need a quick takeoff like at a stopsign or stoplight so i am not sure if low rpm stall is caused by tranny code, idle relearn or fuel, igntion or air leak issue, low miles only 47K so probably sat a fair amt in its past and not driven regularly, i will see if fuel rsil scraeder valve squirts or dribbles when i can figure out how to get the plastic engine cover off, at front of cover are two odd type fastners i have never seen b4 with a round hole in the middle kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gN5_gKiGvrHepqc.htmlfeature=shared 0:06 0:06

You still have to clean the throttle body periodicae lly. Not cleaning the throttle body can cause hesitation, stalling, and rough idle.

Thanks for watching my video and taking the time to comment. That is correct cleaning the throttle body is good but, knowing how to do it properly is very important. Some cars are drive-by-wire throttles which often require a bit more tools and know how, as opposed to cable driven throttles which require less but still some important steps. Thanks a bunch for watching and taking the time to comment.

Thanks a bunch for the update. It’s very difficult to diagnose a rumbling sound without seeing the situation physically, especially when there is no fault codes stored. It could be something just loose like a heat shield of some sort or maybe the flex pipe is on its way out. Please share an update if you find the source, greatly interested. Much luck and looking forward to an update, thanks.

Runs smoothly when I feather some gas but will die almost immediately if I leave it to idle on its own. Goes as low as 250rpm then dies.

2002 Lexus ES 300 with an ETC (electronic throttle control meaning I do not have a IACV) 147k. It’s been sitting for 3 years. Changed the battery, spark plugs, oil and filter, and swapped out the gas in it. I’ve been researching a ton and everything leads me back to this method but it’s not working for me. The car will start up no problem and can drive it around it a bit, as long as I’m feathering the gas a bit, if not the idle will reach around 250rpm then die. Any help will be appreciated.

@@darrylmechell8907 Thanks for the derailed replay with everything you have done it maybe hard to cipher this online. Two things have you scanned the OBD system for stored fault codes? Also if the car sat for 3 years maybe an issue with fuel delivery may want to check the fuel filter to start of you have no stored fault codes. Please share an update, thanks.
