Default Throttle Body Recalibration

Can anybody actually get this thing to work? i swear to god i've tried it a dozen times. I can't get the CIL to even start flashing. Any help? Ive searched a thousand useless threads, I have the MD version of the reset, but i can't seem to get it working even with a stop watch. A couple pointers would be severly helpful right now. Thanks in advance for your time.

^I've tried too... I can get it to blink the first time but can't the second time. I've also tried it MANY times (like 30 times lol)...

i actually got this to work last night. I guess it recalibrates the timing on the butterfly valve. I was having problems with stalling and sputtering before hand. After the 30th try i got it to work and have noticed an improvement since the recal.

only right way to do it is with consult 2 or 3. its worth paying half hour labor at the dealer for it.

btw all this is setting TPS and idle air volume

may be true, but the reset procedure i ran through did wonders for my idle position on a warm start up. I was having problems with the RPMs dropping out and the car stalling out on warm start ups only. Now the car idle's like it did before i installed the spacer. I called nissan to see if they would run a reset procedure on my TB before i could get it to work. They wanted to tell me i had broken gears and it needed replacement. To hell with that and i kept trying. seems to have worked.
