So i killed my battery listening to the radio while doing rear brakes and e brake cables yesterday it did the normal wont idle thing after i charged it, but it never fixed itself, would only idle at 300-350 and would die, cleaned the throttle body out today and it helped with the issue a little, could this issue be a sticky throttle position sensor or? I wanna fix this issue tomorrow if possible

I started mine up, kept it running by feathering the gas, and shut it off while I had it at 900ish rpms. Started right back up and never had the problem again. Weird right? From my research when I had that problem I was told the computer just has to reset. Beats me, I was even more of a noob back then haha.

yeah ive had this dead battery situation a bunch of times now, and it would all go away after 10 minutes or so, its just this time it doesnt go away and the act of cleaning the throttle body was helping it to restore idle to near normal

Did you remove the TB to clean it? I'd not, pull it off, and remove the iac valve, make sure you get all the carbon and gunk out, resemble and try that
