Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - Failed idle air learning, stalled, won't start!

Hi all,

I recently got my car on the road and have been knocking out one small gremlin at a time. My idle has been a bit on the high side since getting my GTM TT setup plumbed correctly, and so I decided to pull up Nissan Datascan with my BT OBD adapter and re-learn the idle air.

I started the car without issue as normal and let it warm up. Cleared the self learning, and then a few minutes later tried the idle air learning. It mailed/timed out. I shut the car down, let it sit for a minute, and fired it back up. Idle was rock solid and so I tried again. This time mid procedure the idle stumbled and the car shut down. Now when I try to start it, I get the starter cranking away but it won't fire up.

Has anyone run into anything similar? It almost seems like a fuel issue, but that's a mighty big coincidence. Is there some master reset I can do or something similar? As always, any fingers pointing in the general right direction would be most appreciated!
