After getting fluids done, I replaced all the spark plugs with the Denso pre-gapped iridium spark plugs. I noticed a ticking noise coming from one side so I took them all out, looked at them (one looked too clean) and switched the coil pack on that one. Still got a tick so I put an old one in and the tick went away. took the plug back and got a replacement one and it works. Random denso plug dead from the factory.
After reconnecting the battery, the car was idling low and when I put it in reverse, it died. it was idling in gear at about 250-400 rpms. When the battery is disconnected, the computer relearns idle. when it did this, it relearned idle with the throttle body and mass airflow sensor clogged up which I confirmed when I took them both off. after cleaning those, it now idles around 1000 rpms in park. I need to remove the battery again and I think it will normalize. If you clean the throttle body, make sure you are getting clearance all around the flap so air can go through. the computer before the disconnect had adjusted to that but was messed up upon relearning it causing the issue.
The rear driver side door had no door light turning on and when I removed it I couldn't find the wire for it. I mention this mostly because some people never take their doors apart. for the arm rest, literally just pull up on it and it comes off. Doing that, I was able to get my fingers into the door and pull out the wires that were disconnected for some reason.
