How do I set proper rpm

I replaced the throttle positioning censor on my 2004 Kia Optima v6 and now it idles high and shifts at about 4000 rpm's. How do I adjust this and what is the proper rpm?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

joe, this may have to be done through a dealer. The ECU may have to "learn" about the new TPS through the KIA software. I would try a reset by unplugging the positive battery cable for something like 10minutes and then reconnect. Hope this helps, good luck.
