Default Low idle? Help

Hi I just installed my volt 3k hid fogs on my 350 and see that my idle is now really low - less than 1k around 500!!! I have no idea what triggered this as I just installed the hid's... Just unhooked the battery before install and hooked it back... The fogs work great but the idle seems a bit low... Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

When warm the car is supposed to idle around 750-800, may be lower when in drive..

I also have 3K volt kit, but I don't have this problem.

By disconnecting the battery, you reset the idle learned value in the ECU. Since your throttle body is likely dirty, the reset value makes the idle very low. You can either clean your throttle body, or do the idle learn process.. do a quick search..
