just installed my foglights, but now the car has rouch idles
like the title said, the car has rough idle when the it is not moving. I did unplugged the battery before i install the lights, would that be the cause? I know i've seen somebody post a thread with the same issue, but i just can't find it. Can anyone give me any advice?? thanks

I can't seem to reset the PCM by using the Reset mileage-ON-20 brake tabs method. I turn my key into On and step the brake 20 times and then nothing happens?? what did i do wrong?

this is the update for my first post:
I've finally fix the idle issues i was having for a long time. Today o took apart my intake box, I first clean the throttle body with the throttle body clean and then i put the dividers from my intake box back. My car is running smoother then ever. I am very very happy with the result.

just like to point out that i talked about this in another thread yesterday.
classic example of the "one happened after the other so it must be cause and effect" idea.
he didnt mention any actions with the intake in his first post because what directly proceeded the rough idle was the foglight install.
had he given all info we would have said "clean the MAF".
also atl04 you can take out the baffles if you want they do not effect the idle. but when you do so be aware you might knock some dirt/oil off the filter again causing the rough idle again
